Perturbative QCD calculations find that branching fractions for Ξ_b to Ξ lepton-pair decays lie within LHCb reach and that angular observables plus a specific ratio can constrain Wilson coefficients and extract |V_td/V_ts| independently of mesonic modes.

abstract
We report the first observation of the baryonic flavor-changing neutral current decay Lambda_b -> Lambda mu+ mu- with 24 signal events and a statistical significance of 5.8 Gaussian standard deviations. This measurement uses ppbar collisions data sample corresponding to 6.8fb-1 at sqrt{s}=1.96TeV collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider. The total and differential branching ratios for Lambda_b -> Lambda mu+ mu- are measured. We find B(Lambda_b -> Lambda mu+ mu-) = [1.73+-0.42(stat)+-0.55(syst)] x 10^{-6}. We also report the first measurement of the differential branching ratio of B_s -> phi mu+ mu- using 49 signal events. In addition, we report branching ratios for B+ -> K+ mu+ mu-, B0 -> K0 mu+ mu-, and B -> K*(892) mu+ mu- decays.

Weak annihilation contributions are sizable in B_c^+ to D^{*+} lepton pair decays and must be included to obtain reliable Standard Model predictions for angular observables.
The work computes differential and total branching ratios plus forward-backward asymmetries for Λ_b → Λ ℓ⁺ℓ⁻, Σ_b → Σ ℓ⁺ℓ⁻ and Ξ_b → Ξ ℓ⁺ℓ⁻ in 2HDM Type III and contrasts them with SM predictions.
