The radiative decay $Lambda_{b}^{0} to Lambda gamma$ is observed for the first time using a data sample of proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.7,fb^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of $13,TeV$. Its branching fraction is measured exploiting the $B^{0} to K^{*0} gamma$ decay as a normalization mode and is found to be $mathcal{B}(Lambda_{b}^{0} to Lambda gamma)= (7.1 pm 1.5 pm 0.6 pm 0.7) times 10^{-6}$, where the quoted uncertainties are statistical, systematic and systematic from external inputs, respectively. This is the first observation of a radiative decay of a beauty baryon.

A search for previously unobserved decays of beauty baryons to the final states $K^0_{mathrm{S}}ppi^-$ and $K^0_{mathrm{S}}pK^-$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions. The $Lambda^0_b rightarrow K^0_{mathrm{S}}ppi^-$ decay is observed for the first time with a significance of $8.6,sigma$, and a measurement is made of the $CP$ asymmetry, which is consistent with zero. No significant signals are seen for $Lambda^0_b rightarrow K^0_{mathrm{S}}pK^-$ decays, $Xi^0_b$ decays to both $K^0_{mathrm{S}}ppi^-$ and $K^0_{mathrm{S}}pK^-$ final states, and the $Lambda^0_b rightarrow D^-_s (K^0_{mathrm{S}}K^-)p$ decay, and upper limits on their branching fractions are reported.
The suppressed decay $Lambda^{0}_{b}rightarrow ppi^{-}mu^{+}mu^{-}$, excluding the $J/psi$ and $psi(2S)rightarrow mu^{+}mu^{-}$ resonances, is observed for the first time with a significance of 5.5 standard deviations. The analysis is performed with proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb experiment. The $Lambda^{0}_{b}rightarrow ppi^{-}mu^{+}mu^{-}$ branching fraction is measured relative to the $Lambda^{0}_{b}rightarrow J/psi(rightarrow mu^{+}mu^{-})ppi^{-}$ branching fraction giving begin{align} onumber frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda^{0}_{b}rightarrow ppi^{-}mu^{+}mu^{-})}{mathcal{B}({Lambda^{0}_{b}rightarrow J/psi(rightarrow mu^{+}mu^{-})ppi^{-}})} &= 0.044pm0.012pm0.007, end{align} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This is the first observation of a $brightarrow d$ transition in a baryonic decay.
The first observation of the decay $kstarkstar$ is reported using 35invpb of data collected by LHCb in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of $49.8 pm 7.5$ $B^0_s rightarrow (K^+pi^-)(K^-pi^+)$ events are {observed w ithin $pm 50 mevcc$ of the Bs mass and $746 mevcc < m_{Kpi}< 1046 mevcc$, mostly coming from a resonant $kstarkstar$ signal.} The branching fraction and the CP-averaged Kstarz longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be {$BR(kstarkstar) = (2.81 pm 0.46 ({rm stat.}) pm 0.45 ({rm syst.}) pm 0.34, (f_s/f_d))times10^{-5}$} and $f_L = 0.31 pm 0.12 ({rm stat.}) pm 0.04 ({rm syst.})$.
We report a search for charmless hadronic decays of neutral $B$ mesons to $eta K^{*}(892)^{0}$. The results are based on a 711fb$^{-1}$ data sample that contains $772times 10^6 Boverline{B}$ pairs, collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Be lle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ collider. We observe the decay for the first time with a significance of 5.0 standard deviations and obtain its branching fraction ${cal B}[B^0toeta K^{*}(892)^{0}]=[2.6pm0.7{rm (stat)}pm0.2{rm (syst)}]times 10^{-6}$. We also measure the $CP$ violating asymmetry as ${cal A}_{CP}[B^0toeta K^{*}(892)^{0}]=-0.22pm0.29{rm (stat)}pm0.07{rm syst}$.
The first observation of the decay of a $B^0$ meson to a purely baryonic final state, $B^0 to p bar{p}$, is reported. The proton-proton collision data sample used was collected with the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV and co rresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. The branching fraction is determined to be $${cal B}(B^0 to p bar{p}) = ( 1.25 pm 0.27 pm 0.18 ) times 10^{-8} ,$$ where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The decay mode $B^0 to p bar{p}$ is the rarest decay of the $B^0$ meson observed to date. The decay $B_s^0 to p bar{p}$ is also investigated. No signal is seen and the upper limit ${cal B}(B_s^0 to p bar{p}) < 1.5 times 10^{-8}$ at 90% confidence level is set on the branching fraction.
