We examine the three-body baryonic $\bar B\to {\bf B\bar B'}V$ decays with $V$ vector mesons in the standard model. We can simultaneously explain the recent experimental data on the decays of $B^-\to \Lambda\bar p \,\rho^0$ and $\bar B\to…

We study the doubly charmed baryonic B decays $B\to \Xi_{c} \Lambda_{c}$ and $B\to \Lambda^{+}_{c} \Lambda^{-}_{c} K$, recently observed by BELLE. We find that the unexpected large branching ratios (BRs) could be ascribed to the final state…

With the wealth of new data from the B-factories, b -> d penguin decays become available for study, in addition to their b -> s counterparts that have proven an indespensable tool for the exploration of new-physics effects in flavour…

Using a sample of (470.9 +- 2.8) x 10^6 BB-bar pairs, we measure the decay branching fraction B(B^0 -> D^*- pi^+ pi^- pi^+) = (7.26 +- 0.11 +- 0.31) x 10^-3, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Our…

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 $p\bar \Lambda K^-)$…

Based on 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ data taken at seven center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.600 to 4.699 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the branching fractions of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}+hadrons$…

We calculate the branching ratio of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ in the standard model using the PQCD method. The predicted branching ratio $B(\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma)$ is about $(4.3\sim 8.6)\times 10^{-8}$, with reasonable…

We present studies of two-body and three-body charmed baryonic B decays in a sample of 232 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ storage ring. The branching fractions of the decays $\bar{B}^{0}…

The decay $\Xi^-_b \to \pi^- \Lambda_b$ has recently been observed by the LHCb Collaboration at CERN. In contrast to most weak decays of $b$-flavored baryons, this process involves the decay of the strange quark in $\Xi_b$, and thus has…
