Form factors of $$\varLambda _b^0 \rightarrow \varLambda _c(2595)^+$$ Λ b 0 → Λ c ( 2595 ) + within light-cone QCD sum rules by Hui-Hui Duan, Yong-Lu Liu, Qin Chang, Ming-Qiu Huang

“…Furthermore, by combining these form factors with the helicity amplitudes of the bottom baryon transition matrix elements, we calculated the differential decay widths for the processes $$\varLambda _b^0 \rightarrow \varLambda _c(2595)^+\ell ^-\bar{\nu }_\ell $$ Λ b 0 → Λ c ( 2595 ) + ℓ - ν ¯ ℓ and provided the optimal choice of the interpolating current for $$\varLambda _c$$ Λ c in this process. Additionally, within the lifetime of $$\varLambda _b^0$$ Λ b 0 , we obtained the absolute branching fractions for the semileptonic decays $$\varLambda _b^0 \rightarrow \varLambda _c(2595)^+ \ell ^- \bar{\nu }_\ell $$ Λ b 0 → Λ c ( 2595 ) + ℓ - ν ¯ ℓ . …”
