A bstractWe examine various scenarios in which the Standard Model is extended by a light leptoquark state to solve for one or both B-physics anomalies, viz. RD*exp>RD*SM$$ {R}_{D^{\left(*\right)}}^{\exp }>{R}_{D^{\left(*\right)}}^{\mathrm{SM}} $$ or/and RK*exp>RK*SM$$ {R}_{K^{\left(*\right)}}^{\exp }>{R}_{K^{\left(*\right)}}^{\mathrm{SM}} $$. To do so we combine the constraints arising both from the low-energy observables and from direct searches at the LHC. We find that none of the scalar…

RK and RK* in an aligned 2HDM with right-handed neutrinos
We consider the possibility of explaining the recent ${R}_{K}$ and ${R}_{{K}^{*}}$ anomalies in a two-Higgs doublet model, known as aligned, combined with a low-scale seesaw mechanism generating…
Testing leptoquark and Z′ models via B→K1(1270,1400)μ+μ− decays
The measurements of $R_{K^{(*)}}=\mathcal B(B\to K^{(*)}\mu^{+}\mu^{-})/\mathcal B(B\to K^{(*)}e^{+}e^{-})$ in recent years have hinted lepton flavor non-universality and thus drawn widespread…
Constraining the minimal flavor violating leptoquark explanation of the RD(*) anomaly
There has been persistent disagreement between the Standard Model (SM) prediction and experimental measurements of $R_{D^{(*)}}=\mathcal{B}(\bar B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \tau…
CP violation in same-sign dilepton production at the LHC
If the neutrino is a Majorana particle, low-energy lepton-number-violating (LNV) processes, such as neutrinoless double-beta ($0\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{\beta}$) decay, are…

Collider signature of V_2 Leptoquark with b → s flavour observables

RD(*) motivated S1 leptoquark scenarios: Impact of interference on the exclusion limits from LHC data
Motivated by the persistent anomalies in the semileptonic $B$-meson decays, we investigate the competency of LHC data to constrain the $R_{D^{(*)}}$-favoured parameter space in a charge $-1/3$ scalar…
Effects of vector leptoquarks on ${\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda_c \ell\, \overline{\nu}_\ell} $ decay
Experimental data on $ R(D^{(*)}) $, $ R(K^{(*)}) $ and $ R(J/\psi) $, provided by different collaborations, show sizable deviations from the SM predictions. To describe these anomalies many new…
Model for the singlet-triplet leptoquarks
The deviations of $B$-meson decays measured in $R_{D^{(*)}}^{\tau\ell}$ and $R_{K^{(*)}}^{\mu e}$ can be explained by the presence of two scalar leptoquarks, a singlet $S_1$ and a triplet $S_3$,…
Phenomenology of $\,{{b\to c\tau\bar\nu }}\,$ decays in a scalar leptoquark model
During the past few years, hints of Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU) violation have been observed in $b \to c \tau \bar\nu$ and $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ transitions. Recently, the $D^*$ and $\tau$…

Lepton flavor violation in B decays?
TLDR
A simple model shows that these rates could lie just below current limits, and stresses the importance of searches for lepton flavor violations, especially for B→Kμe, Kμτ, and B_{s}→ μe, μτ.
