Abstract

The deviations of BB-meson decays measured in RD()τR_{D^{(*)}}^{\tau\ell} and RK()μeR_{K^{(*)}}^{\mu e} can be explained by the presence of two scalar leptoquarks, a singlet S1S_1 and a triplet S3S_3, mostly coupled to the third generation. We consider a theory of resonances, as an effective description of a strongly interacting theory, that generates the leptoquarks and the Higgs as Nambu-Goldstone bosons, with the rest of the resonances at a scale of order 1030 TeV10-30\ {\rm TeV}. We assume anarchic partial compositeness for the flavor of the SM fermions. Under these hypothesis we study whether it is possible to reproduce the deviations in the BB-decays without being in conflict with flavor and electroweak bounds. We find a tension between RD()τR_{D^{(*)}}^{\tau\ell} and some flavor observables, dominated by flavor violating τ\tau decays and ΔmBs\Delta m_{B_s}, that require a tuning of order 1025%10-25\%. We also compute the potential of the scalars showing that leptoquarks with masses O(23) TeV{\cal}O(2-3)\ {\rm TeV} can be naturally expected in the model. We discuss briefly the phenomenology of the other resonances.
