We study for the first time the three-body charmless baryonic decays $\bar B^0_s\to \bar p \Lambda M^+ (p \bar \Lambda M^-)$, with $M=\pi, K$. We find that the branching ratios of $\bar B^0_s\to (\bar p \Lambda K^+$ and $p\bar \Lambda K^-)$…
The conspicuous threshold enhancement has been observed in the baryon-antibaryon subchannels of many three-body B decay modes. By examining the partial waves of baryon-antibaryon, we first show for B- -->pp-bar K- that the pK- angular…

The forward-backward angular asymmetry (${\cal A}_{FB}$) for $\bar B^0\to \Lambda\bar p\pi^+$ measured by Belle has presented an experimental value in the range of $-30\%$ to $-50\%$. In our study, we find that ${\cal A}_{FB}[\bar…
