We investigate the decay of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\nu\bar{\nu}$ with the polarized baryons of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda$. With the most general hadronic form factors, we first study the decay branching ratio and then derive the longitudinal,…
We study the inclusive $H_b \to X_s \gamma$ decay with $H_b$ a beauty baryon, in particular $\Lambda_b$, employing an expansion in the heavy quark mass at $\mathit{O}(m_b^{-3})$ at leading order in $\alpha_s$, keeping the dependence on the…
Inclusive semileptonic decays of beauty baryons are studied using the heavy quark expansion to ${\cal O}(1/m_b^3)$, at leading order in $\alpha_s$. The case of a polarized decaying baryon is examined, with reference to $\Lambda_b$. An…
We employ OPE techniques within HQET to calculate the inclusive semileptonic decays of polarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons. Lepton mass effects are included which enables us to also discuss rates into polarized $\tau$-leptons. We present explicit…
The differential decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2$ for the semileptonic decay of an unpolarized hadron containing a b-quark, and the decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2 d\!\cos\theta$ for polarized $\Lambda_b$ decay are computed to second…
The $\tau$ polarization in semileptonic $B$ decays provides probes of new physics complementary to decay rate distributions of the three-body final state. Prior calculations for inclusive decays used a definition for the polarization axis…
We analyze the tauonic semileptonic baryon decays $\Lambda^0_b \to \Lambda^+_c + \tau^{-} +\bar \nu_{\tau}$ with particular emphasis on the lepton helicity flip contributions which vanish for zero lepton masses. We calculate the total rate,…
We calculate in the framework of two Higgs doublet models the differential decay rate for inclusive $\bar B\to\tau\,\bar\nu\,X$ transitions to order $1/m_b^2$ in the heavy quark expansion, for both polarized and unpolarized tau leptons. In…
Inclusive $H_b \to X_s \, \gamma$ decays, with $H_b$ a beauty baryon, are treated exploiting an expansion up to the third order in the inverse of the $b$ quark mass $m_b$ and to LO in $\alpha_s$, keeping the dependence on the hadron spin.…

The possible transverse polarization of the $\tau$-lepton, which is $T$-odd and can be used to measure CP-violation, is estimated precisely in the radiative decay mode $B_c \to \tau \bar \nu_\tau \gamma$ with possible parameters for the…
We apply perturbative QCD factorization theorems to inclusive heavy hadron decays, and obtain simultaneously a low semileptonic branching ratio $B(B\to Xl\bar{\nu})=10.16%$, the average charm yield $<n_c>=1.17$ per $B$ decay, a small…
