Using a successful framework for describing S-wave hadronic decays of light hyperons induced by a subprocess $s to u (bar u d)$, we presented recently a model-independent calculation of the amplitude and branching ratio for $Xi^-_b to Lambda_b pi^-$ in agreement with a LHCb measurement. The same quark process contributes to $Xi^0_c to Lambda_c pi^-$, while a second term from the subprocess $cs to cd$ has been related by Voloshin to differences among total decay rates of charmed baryons. We calculate this term and find it to have a magnitude approximately equal to the $s to u (bar u d)$ term. We argue for a negligible relative phase between these two contributions, potentially due to final state interactions. However, we do not know whether they interfere destructively or constructively. For constructive interference one predicts ${cal B}(Xi_c^0 to Lambda_c pi^-) = (1.94 pm 0.70)times 10^{-3}$ and ${cal B}(Xi_c^+ to Lambda_c pi^0) = (3.86 pm 1.35)times 10^{-3}$. For destructive interference, the respective branching fractions are expected to be less than about $10^{-4}$ and $2 times 10^{-4}$.

From the perspective that the $Lambda_c(2595)$ and $Lambda_c(2625)$ are dynamically generated resonances from the $DN,~D^*N$ interaction and coupled channels, we have evaluated the rates for $Lambda_b to pi^- Lambda_c(2595)$ and $Lambda_b to pi^- Lam bda_c(2625)$ up to a global unknown factor that allows us to calculate the ratio of rates and compare with experiment, where good agreement is found. Similarly, we can also make predictions for the ratio of rates of the, yet unknown, decays of $Lambda_b to D_s^- Lambda_c(2595)$ and $Lambda_b to D_s^- Lambda_c(2625)$ and make estimates for their individual branching fractions.
The decay $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ is observed using $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of $sqrt{s}=$ 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 $fb^{-1}$. The ratio o f branching fractions between $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ and $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ pi^-$ decays is measured to be begin{equation*} frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)} = 0.0540 pm 0.0023 pm 0.0032. end{equation*} Two resonant structures are observed in the $ Lambda_c^+ pi^-$ mass spectrum of the ${Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ poverline{p} pi^-}$ decays, corresponding to the $Sigma_c(2455)^0$ and $Sigma_c^{*}(2520)^0$ states. The ratios of branching fractions with respect to the decay $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ are begin{align*} frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Sigma_c^0 poverline{p})timesmathcal{B}(Sigma_c^0to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)} = 0.089pm0.015pm0.006, frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Sigma_c^{*0} poverline{p})timesmathcal{B}(Sigma_c^{*0}to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)} = 0.119pm0.020pm0.014. end{align*} In all of the above results, the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The phase space is also examined for the presence of dibaryon resonances. No evidence for such resonances is found.
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 features in common with nonleptonic weak decays of hyperons. Thanks to the expected pure S-wave nature of the decay in question in the heavy $b$ quark limit, we find that its amplitude may be related to those for S-wave nonleptonic decays of $Lambda$, $Sigma$, and $Xi$ in a picture inspired by duality. The calculated branching fraction ${cal B}(Xi^-_b to pi^- Lambda_b) = (6.3 pm 4.2) times 10^{-3}$ is consistent with the range allowed in the LHCb analysis. The error is dominated by an assumed 30% uncertainty in the amplitude due to possible U(3) violation. A more optimistic view based on sum rules involving nonleptonic hyperon decay S-wave amplitudes reduces the error on the branching fraction to $2.0 times 10^{-3}$.
We present the first lattice-QCD calculation of the form factors governing the charm-baryon semileptonic decays $Lambda_c to Lambda^*(1520)ell^+ u_ell$. As in our previous calculation of the $Lambda_b to Lambda^*(1520)$ form factors, we work in the $ Lambda^*(1520)$ rest frame, but here we use four different heavy-baryon momenta instead of just two. Because of the lower mass of the $Lambda_c$, the moderately-sized momenta used here are sufficient to determine the form factors in the full kinematic range of the semileptonic decay. We also update the analysis of our lattice results for the $Lambda_b to Lambda^*(1520)$ and $Lambda_b to Lambda_c^*(2595,2625)$ form factors by imposing exact relations among the different form factors at zero recoil that follow from rotational symmetry. Imposing these relations ensures the correct behavior of the angular observables near the endpoint.

We analyze the most recent data for the pion vector form factor in the timelike region, employing a model-independent approach based on dispersion theory. We confirm earlier observations about the inconsistency of different modern high-precision data sets. Excluding the BaBar data, we find an updated value for the isospin-violating branching ratio $mathcal{B}(omega to pi^+pi^-) = (1.46pm 0.08) times 10^{-2}$. As a side result, we also extract an improved value for the pion vector or charge radius, $sqrt{langle r_V^2rangle} = 0.6603(5)(4)text{fm}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical as derived from the fit, while the second estimates the possible size of nonuniversal radiative corrections. In addition, we demonstrate that modern high-quality data for the decay $eta to pi^+pi^-gamma$ will allow for an even improved determination of the transition strength $omegatopi^+pi^-$.
