We present the first lattice QCD determination of the $Lambda_b to Lambda^*(1520)$ vector, axial vector, and tensor form factors that are relevant for the rare decays $Lambda_b to Lambda^*(1520)ell^+ell^-$. The lattice calculation is performed in the $Lambda^*(1520)$ rest frame with nonzero $Lambda_b$ momenta, and is limited to the high-$q^2$ region. An interpolating field with covariant derivatives is used to obtain good overlap with the $Lambda^*(1520)$. The analysis treats the $Lambda^*(1520)$ as a stable particle, which is expected to be a reasonable approximation for this narrow resonance. A domain-wall action is used for the light and strange quarks, while the $b$ quark is implemented with an anisotropic clover action with coefficients tuned to produce the correct $B_s$ kinetic mass, rest mass, and hyperfine splitting. We use three different ensembles of lattice gauge-field configurations generated by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations, and perform extrapolations of the form factors to the continuum limit and physical pion mass. We give Standard-Model predictions for the $Lambda_b to Lambda^*(1520)ell^+ell^-$ differential branching fraction and angular observables in the high-$q^2$ region.

We present the first lattice-QCD determination of the form factors describing the semileptonic decays $Lambda_b to Lambda_c^*(2595)ell^-bar{ u}$ and $Lambda_b to Lambda_c^*(2625)ell^-bar{ u}$, where the $Lambda_c^*(2595)$ and $Lambda_c^*(2625)$ are t he lightest charm baryons with $J^P=frac12^-$ and $J^P=frac32^-$, respectively. These decay modes provide new opportunities to test lepton flavor universality and also play an important role in global analyses of the strong interactions in $bto c$ semileptonic decays. We determine the full set of vector, axial vector, and tensor form factors for both decays, but only in a small kinematic region near the zero-recoil point. The lattice calculation uses three different ensembles of gauge-field configurations with $2+1$ flavors of domain-wall fermions, and we perform extrapolations of the form factors to the continuum limit and physical pion mass. We present Standard-Model predictions for the differential decay rates and angular observables. In the kinematic region considered, the differential decay rate for the $frac12^-$ final state is found to be approximately 2.5 times larger than the rate for the $frac32^-$ final state. We also test the compatibility of our form-factor results with zero-recoil sum rules.
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.

The first lattice QCD calculation of the form factors governing $Lambda_c to Lambda ell^+ u_ell$ decays is reported. The calculation was performed with two different lattice spacings and includes one ensemble with a pion mass of 139(2) MeV. The resu lting predictions for the $Lambda_c to Lambda e^+ u_e$ and $Lambda_c to Lambda mu^+ u_mu$ decay rates divided by $|V_{cs}|^2$ are $0.2007(71)(74):{rm ps}^{-1}$ and $0.1945(69)(72):{rm ps}^{-1}$, respectively, where the two uncertainties are statistical and systematic. Taking the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cs}|$ from a global fit and the $Lambda_c$ lifetime from experiments, this translates to branching fractions of $mathcal{B}(Lambda_ctoLambda e^+ u_e)=0.0380(19)_{rm LQCD::}(11)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}$ and $mathcal{B}(Lambda_ctoLambda mu^+ u_mu)=0.0369(19)_{rm LQCD::}(11)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}$. These results are consistent with, and two times more precise than, the measurements performed recently by the BESIII Collaboration. Using instead the measured branching fractions together with the lattice calculation to determine the CKM matrix element gives $|V_{cs}|= 0.949(24)_{rm LQCD::}(14)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}(49)_{mathcal{B}}$.
We report the first lattice QCD calculation of the form factors for the standard model tree-level decay $B_sto K ell u$. In combination with future measurement, this calculation will provide an alternative exclusive semileptonic determination of $|V_ {ub}|$. We compare our results with previous model calculations, make predictions for differential decay rates and branching fractions, and predict the ratio of differential branching fractions between $B_sto Ktau u$ and $B_sto Kmu u$. We also present standard model predictions for differential decay rate forward-backward asymmetries, polarization fractions, and calculate potentially useful ratios of $B_sto K$ form factors with those of the fictitious $B_stoeta_s$ decay. Our lattice simulations utilize NRQCD $b$ and HISQ light quarks on a subset of the MILC Collaborations $2+1$ asqtad gauge configurations, including two lattice spacings and a range of light quark masses.
We present the prospects of an angular analysis of the $Lambda_b to Lambda(1520)ell^+ell^-$ decay. Using the expected yield in the current dataset collected at the LHCb experiment, as well as the foreseen ones after the LHCb upgrades, sensitivity stu dies are presented to determine the experimental precision on angular observables related to the lepton distribution and their potential to identify New Physics. The forward-backward lepton asymmetry at low dilepton invariant mass is particularly promising. NP scenarios favoured by the current anomalies in $bto sell^+ell^-$ decays can be distinguished from the SM case with the data collected between the Run 3 and the Upgrade 2 of the LHCb experiment.
