Implications on CP violation of charmless three body decays of bottom baryon from the U-spin analysis

Abstract

Motivated by recent LHCb measurements of CP violation in $\Lambda_b$ three-body decays, we conduct an analysis of CP asymmetry in three-body decays of bottom baryons utilizing U-spin symmetry. We first develop a convenient representation that facilitates the incorporation of U-spin symmetry into our analysis. By integrating weak and strong phases into the derived amplitude, we obtain the CP asymmetry and establish relationships between CP asymmetries in U-spin related decay channels. With the help of experimental measurements, we provide numerical predictions for the CP asymmetries for other decay channels, particularly $\Lambda_b \to \Sigma^0 K^+ K^-$, $\Xi^0_b \to \Lambda \pi^+ \pi^-$, $\Lambda_b \to \Sigma^0 K^+ \pi^-$, and $\Xi^0_b \to \Sigma K^- \pi^+$. Furthermore, we provide a quantity that can be used as a null test of standard model and deviations from 0 will reflect the possible new physics. These results are valuable for CPV measurements in baryon decays, and can be tested in future experiments.
