Abstract

We have searched for the baryon-containing radiative penguin decays B ^-→Λp̄γ and B^-→ Σ^0-pγ, using a sample of 9.7 × 10⁶ BB̄ events collected at the Y(45) with the CLEO detector. We find no evidence for either, and set 90% confidence level upper limits of B(B ^-→Λp̄γ) + 0.3B(B ^-→Σ^0-p̄γ)]_Eγ >2.0 GeV<3.3×10^-6, [B(B^-→Σ ^0-p̄γ) + 0-4B(B^-→Λp̄γ)] _Eγ>2.0Gev<6.4×10⁶. From the latter, we estimate B(B →X_sγy,X_s containing baryons) _{Eγ>2.0 GeV}<3.8×10^-5. This limit implies upper limits on corrections to CLEO's recent measurement of branching fraction, mean photon energy, and variance in photon energy from b→sγ that are less than half the combined statistical and systematic errors quoted on these quantities.
