We study the two-body baryonic $B$ and $D_s$ decays based on the annihilation mechanism without the partial conservation of axial-vector current (PCAC) at the GeV scale. We demonstrate that the contributions of $B^-\to \Lambda\bar p$,…

We investigate $P$-wave bottom baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$, and systematically study their $D$-wave decays into ground-state bottom baryons and pseudoscalar mesons. Together with [PRD91, 054034 (2015); PRD92, 114007 (2015);…
We report the first observation of the charmless hyperonic B decay, B0 -> p Lambdabar pi-, using a 78 fb^-1 data sample recorded on the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. The measured branching fraction is B(B0 -> p…
Several baryons containing a heavy b-quark have been discovered. The decays of these states provide new platform for testing the standard model (SM). We study $CP$ violation in SM for charmless two-body decays of the flavor $SU(3)$…

We study the three-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B\bar B'}M$ decays with $M$ representing the $\eta$ or $\eta'$ meson. Particularly, we predict that ${\cal B}(B^-\to\Lambda\bar p\eta,\Lambda\bar p\eta')=(5.3\pm 1.4,3.3\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ or…

The role of $W$-exchange diagrams in baryonic $B$ decays is poorly understood, and often taken as insignificant and neglected. We show that charmful two-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B}_c \bar {\bf B}'$ decays provide a good test-bed for the…
