1  Extracted using a Bayesian analysis. The most probable value is given as $-0.022$, with a 68$\%$ credibility interval $\lbrack{}$-0.048, 0.005]. Transverse polarizations of ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}^{0}}$ of $-0.004$ (68$\%$ credibility interval $\lbrack{}$-0.064, 0.051]), 0.001 (68$\%$ credibility interval $\lbrack{}$-0.035, 0.045]), and 0.032 (68$\%$ credibility interval $\lbrack{}$-0.011, 0.065]) are also reported at 7 TeV, 8 TeV and 13 TeV, respectively. Note that both statistical and systematic uncertainties are included.
2  An angular analysis of ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit J / \psi}}{{\mathit \Lambda}}$ decay is performed. Note that the sign of ${{\mathit \alpha}}$ in CMS definition is the opposite to that used by AAIJ 2013AG and AAD 2014L. ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}}$ transverse production polarization of $0.00$ $\pm0.06$ $\pm0.06$ is also reported, as well as squares of the helicity amplitudes.
3  An angular analysis of ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit J / \psi}}{{\mathit \Lambda}}$ decay is performed and magnitudes of all helicity amplitudes are also reported.
4  An angular analysis of ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}}$ ${{\mathit \Lambda}}$ decay is performed and a ${{\mathit \Lambda}_{{{b}}}}$ transverse production polarization of $0.06$ $\pm0.07$ $\pm0.02$ is also reported.
