The LHCb collaboration has presented first experimental evidence that spin-carrying matter and antimatter differ. The study looked at four-body decays of the $Lambda_b^0$ baryon. Differences in the behaviour of matter and antimatter are associated with the non-invariance of fundamental interactions under the combined charge-conjugation and parity transformations, known as $C!P$ violation. We discuss purely baryonic decay processes, i.e. decay processes involving only spin-carrying particles. They are yet unexplored elementary processes. Their study opens a new chapter of flavour physics in the route towards a better understanding of $C!P$ violation. It may help us to understand the observed matter and antimatter asymmetry of the Universe.

We review the two and three-body baryonic $B$ decays with the dibaryon (${bf Bbar B}$) as the final states. Accordingly, we summarize the experimental data of the branching fractions, angular asymmetries, and $CP$ asymmetries. In the approach of perturbative QCD counting rules, we study the three-body decay channels. Using the $W$-boson annihilation (exchange) mechanism, the branching fractions of $Bto {bf B bf bar B}$ are shown to be interpretable. In particular, we review the $CP$ asymmetries of $Bto {bf Bbar B}M$, which are promising to be measured by the LHCb and Belle II experiments.
The radiative decays of $b$-baryons facilitate the direct measurement of photon helicity in $bto sgamma$ transitions thus serving as an important test of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper we analyze the complete angular distribution of ground state $b$-baryon ($Lambda_{b}^{0}$ and $Xi_{b}^{-}$) radiative decays to multibody final states assuming an initially polarized $b$-baryon sample. Our sensitivity study suggests that the photon polarization asymmetry can be extracted to a good accuracy along with a simultaneous measurement of the initial $b$-baryon polarization. With higher yields of $b$-baryons, achievable in subsequent runs of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we find that the photon polarization measurement can play a pivotal role in constraining different new physics scenarios.
We study the radiative and semileptonic B decays involving a spin-$J$ resonant $K_J^{(*)}$ with parity $(-1)^J$ for $K_J^*$ and $(-1)^{J+1}$ for $K_J$ in the final state. Using the large energy effective theory (LEET) techniques, we formulate $B to K_J^{(*)}$ transition form factors in the large recoil region in terms of two independent LEET functions $zeta_perp^{K_J^{(*)}}$ and $zeta_parallel^{K_J^{(*)}}$, the values of which at zero momentum transfer are estimated in the BSW model. According to the QCD counting rules, $zeta_{perp,parallel}^{K_J^{(*)}}$ exhibit a dipole dependence in $q^2$. We predict the decay rates for $B to K_J^{(*)} gamma$, $B to K_J^{(*)} ell^+ ell^-$ and $B to K_J^{(*)} u bar{ u}$. The branching fractions for these decays with higher $K$-resonances in the final state are suppressed due to the smaller phase spaces and the smaller values of $zeta^{K_J^{(*)}}_{perp,parallel}$. Furthermore, if the spin of $K_J^{(*)}$ becomes larger, the branching fractions will be further suppressed due to the smaller Clebsch-Gordan coefficients defined by the polarization tensors of the $K_J^{(*)}$. We also calculate the forward backward asymmetry of the $B to K_J^{(*)} ell^+ ell^-$ decay, for which the zero is highly insensitive to the $K$-resonances in the LEET parametrization.
Decays of beauty baryons to the $D^0 p h^-$ and $Lambda_c^+ h^-$ final states (where $h$ indicates a pion or a kaon) are studied using a data sample of $pp$ collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb detector. The Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Lambda_b^0to D^0 p K^-$ and $Lambda_b^0to Lambda_c^+ K^-$ are observed and their branching fractions are measured with respect to the decays $Lambda_b^0to D^0 p pi^-$ and $Lambda_b^0to Lambda_c^+ pi^-$. In addition, the first observation is reported of the decay of the neutral beauty-strange baryon $Xi_b^0$ to the $D^0 p K^-$ final state, and a measurement of the $Xi_b^0$ mass is performed. Evidence of the $Xi_b^0to Lambda_c^+ K^-$ decay is also reported.
Inspired by the potential prospects of LHCb, Belle-II, STCF, CEPC and FCC-ee experiments, we discussed the probabilities of experimental investigation on the purely leptonic decays of the ground charged vector mesons including ${rho}^{pm}$, $K^{{ast}{pm}}$, $D_{d,s}^{{ast}{pm}}$ and $B_{u,c}^{{ast}{pm}}$.
