Abstract

We study the rare decays ΛbΛl+l (l=e,μ,τ)\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda l^+ l^-~(l=e,\mu, \tau) in the Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. We find that depending on the values of parameters in our model the branching ratio Br(ΛbΛμ+μ)×106Br(\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda \mu^+ \mu^-)\times 10^{6} varies from 0.8120.812 to 1.4451.445 when κ=0.0500.060\kappa = 0.050 \sim 0.060 GeV3^3 and the binding energy E0=0.14E_0=-0.14 GeV while Br(ΛbΛμ+μ)×106Br(\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda \mu^+ \mu^-)\times 10^{6} varies from 1.0511.051 to 1.0981.098 when κ=0.055\kappa = 0.055 Gev3^3 and the binding energy E0E_0 changes from 0.19-0.19 to 0.09-0.09 GeV. These results agree with the experimental data. In the same parameter regions, we find that the branching ratio Br(ΛbΛe+e(τ+τ))×106Br(\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda e^+ e^-(\tau^+ \tau^-) )\times 10^{6} varies in the range 0.6601.0280.660-1.028 (0.2520.3920.252-0.392) and 0.7491.0980.749-1.098 (0.2860.4890.286-0.489), respectively.
