"We present a sensitivity study for the search for the semi-leptonic, flavour-changing-neutral-current decay B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar. B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar is expected to be highly suppressed in the Standard Model and thus provides a sensitive probe to test for new physics. A branching fraction for B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar has never been experimentally measured.The analysis is conducted using data from the BABAR particle detector, based at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, California, USA. The BABAR dataset comprises approximately 471 million BBbar pairs produced from e-e+ -> Upsilon(4S) collisions and subsequently Upsilon(4S) [right arrow] BBbar.Using hadronic tag reconstruction we separate the two B mesons in each event by fully reconstructing one B meson from known hadronic decay modes, we then conduct a search for B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar in the decay of the other B meson. Using Monte-Carlo simulations of B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar we develop a signal selection designed to isolate B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar while suppressing potential background processes.Data is blinded at later stages of the analysis and we provide a range of possible branching fraction upper limits as a function of the number of data events which might survive the signal selection. Assuming we observe no excess of data events over those predicted by Monte-Carlo, we predict branching fraction upper limits for B- -> lambda pbar nu nubar at the 90% confidence level of 2.64 x 10^-5 using the Barlow method and 3.10 x 10^-5 using the Feldman-Cousins method." --
