In this work, we calculate the branching ratios of the color-allowed two-body nonleptonic decays of the bottom baryons, which include the $\Xi_b\to \Xi_c^{(*)}$ and $\Omega_b\to \Omega_c^{(*)}$ weak transitions by emitting a pseudoscalar…

Within the framework of perturbative QCD approach, we study the charmless two-body decays into final states involving one axial-vector (A), $a_1(1260)$ or $b_1(1235)$, and one vector (V), namely $\rho(\omega,\phi)$. Using the decays…
