We study decay rates and spectra of anti-B --> Lambda anti-p pi, Sigma0 anti-p pi, Sigma- anti-n pi, Xi0 anti-Sigma+ pi, Xi- anti-Sigma0 pi and Xi- anti-Lambda pi modes under a factorization approach. The baryon pairs are produced through…

The total cross sections of the process $e^+ e^-\to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ close to the threshold are calculated within the vector meson dominance model. It is found that the theoretical results can describe the current experimental…
We study the differential decay rate for the rare decay $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda(1520)(\to NK)\ell^+\ell^-$ where $\ell$ is a light lepton, as this decay mode can provide new and complementary constraints on the Wilson coefficients in $b\to…
The polarization of the $W$ boson in $t \to W b$ decay is unambiguously predicted by the Standard Model of weak interactions and is a powerful test of our understanding of the $tbW$ vertex. The subsequent $W \to l \nu$ decay serves as a…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement of the hyperon decay mode $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ and prospects for improvement, we revisit the estimates for the rate and muon forward-backward asymmetry within the standard model and beyond. The…
