Two related issues are discussed, which might be easily explored by present and future COMPASS experiments. The first one deals with the new world of transversity, the fundamental polarized parton distribution so far totally unknown. The…
This study introduces a complete joint angular distribution analysis for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to J/\psi\to B(\to B_1\pi)\bar{B}(\to \bar{B}_1\pi)$ with polarized beams, where $B$ and $B_{1}$ are hyperons. We consider both transverse and…
A comprehensive study of the angular distributions in the bottom-baryon decays $\it{\Lambda}^\mathrm{0}_b\to\it{\Lambda}_c^+ h^-(h=\pi, K)$, followed by $\it{\Lambda}_c^+\to\it{\Lambda} h^+$ with $\it{\Lambda}\to \it{p} \pi^-$ or…
Supersymmetric models with nonuniversal down type squark masses can enrich the chiral structure and CP violating phenomena in $b\to s\gamma$ decays. Direct CP violation in $b\to s \gamma$, mixing induced CP violation in radiative $B_{d,s}$…
An analysis of the decay B0 -> J/psi K*(892)0 is presented using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0fb^-1, collected in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7TeV with the LHCb detector. The polarisation amplitudes…

It is a long-standing puzzle why the {\it CP} violation (CPV) in the baryon system has not yet been definitively established as in the meson one. We demonstrate that individual partial-wave CPV in the $\Lambda_b\to p\pi^-$ and $pK^-$ decays…
We study the differential decay rate for the rare $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (\to N \pi)\ell^+\ell^-$ transition, including a determination of the complete angular distribution, assuming unpolarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons. On the basis of a…
Using $(10087\pm44)\times10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a full angular distribution analysis is carried out on the process $J/\psi\rightarrow\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}\rightarrow n\pi^{0}\bar{p}\pi^{+}+c.c.$ The decay…
Angular distribution of a secondary particle from top-quark decays is studied in a simple and general manner, paying careful attention to how relevant the top-quark production mechanism is. The conditions that lead to the distribution free…
With a sample of about 227 million BB pairs recorded with the BABAR detector we perform a full angular analysis of the decay B0->phi K*0(892). Ten measurements include polarization, phases, and five CP asymmetries. We also observe the decay…
Place an $A$-particle at each site of a graph independently with probability $p$ and otherwise place a $B$-particle. $A$- and $B$-particles perform independent continuous time random walks at rates $\lambda_A$ and $\lambda_B$, respectively,…
In this paper we calculate first order radiative QCD corrections to the decay process $b\to cW^-(\to\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell)$ of a polarized bottom quark. Taking into account both the bottom and charm quark masses, the analytical expressions…

We propose a new way for determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$ without any hadronic uncertainty. The suggested method is to use the two triangles formed by the decay amplitudes of $B^\pm\to (D^0,\bar D^0,D_{CP}^0)…
We systematically investigate the $CP$-averaged branching ratios and $CP$ violations (CPVs) for the two-body hadronic decays $\Lambda_b\to ph$, where $h$ runs through the mesons $\pi^-$, $\rho^-$, $a_1^-(1260)$, $K^-$, $K^{\ast -}$,…
