摘要

We construct light-cone sum rules for various types of effective form factors in the Λb → Λ+ and Λb → Λγ decays by analyzing vacuum-to-Λb (or γ*-to-Λb) correlation functions with the light Λ-baryon interpolating current. These form factors, defined via hadronic matrix elements within soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), enter the next-to-leading-power QCD factorization formulas for large-recoil transitions. Implementing the perturbative matching from SCETI to heavy quark effective theory, we determine the hard-collinear functions at next-to-leading-order accuracy. Based on light-cone sum rule predictions for the Λb → Λ form factors, we compute the q2-dependent differential branching fraction, forward-backward asymmetry and dilepton longitudinal polarization fraction for Λb → Λ+ decay, as well as the branching fraction for Λb → Λγ decay.
