Abstract

The 3.1σ3.1\sigma RKR_K anomaly after Moriond 2021 and 3.3σ3.3 \sigma Δaμ\Delta a_\mu from Fermilab Muon g-2 experiment implicate that the lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV) may play a role in the exploration of new physics. A Flavor Gauged Two-Higgs Doublet Model (FG2HDM) is proposed and investigated in this work. To get rid of the the redundancy in Yukawa coupling of 2HDM-III, a specific U(1) flavor symmetry is introduced. The charge difference between two scalar doublet forbid the appearance of pseudoscalar and hence there are only three particles (a charged and neutral heavy scalar together with a neutral gauge boson) adding to SM particle spectrum. The heavy neutral scalar-mediated flavor-changing interactions occur among down-type quarks. With obvious difference from 2HDM-II, the charged Higgs in FG2HDM can naturally explain RD()R_{D^{(*)}} anomaly. The heavy neutral vector boson ZZ', changing flavor for down-type quark uniquely as well, provides a solution to RK()R_{K^{(*)}}. The anomalous magnetic dipole moment (AMDM) of muon and electron, especially the new released Δaμ\Delta a_\mu, can further discriminate ZZ' parameter space.
