Abstract
Radiative decays of heavy baryons are analyzed within the Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS). It is shown that employing the light-diquark symmetries, the number of electromagnetic couplings among S-wave and P-wave states as well as those between P-wave to S-wave transitions can be reduced significantly. Using this constituent quark model picture the phenomenological implications of some of these decay modes are, also, discussed.
