contents Inclusive $H_b \to X_s \, γ$ decays, with $H_b$ a beauty baryon, are treated exploiting an expansion up to the third order in the inverse of the $b$ quark mass $m_b$ and to LO in $α_s$, keeping the dependence on the hadron spin. Double distribution $\frac{d^2Γ}{dy \, d \cos θ_P}$ is computed for polarized baryons, with $y = 2 \, E_γ/ m_b$, $E_γ$ the photon energy and $θ_P$ the angle between the baryon spin vector and the photon momentum in the $H_b$ rest-frame. Modifications to the photon polarization asymmetry can probe effects of physics beyond the Standard Model. A systematic method to treat the singular terms in the photon energy spectrum obtained by the OPE is proposed.
