Abstract

We estimate contributions from Kaluza-Klein excitations of gauge bosons and physical charge scalar for the explanation of the lepton flavor universality violating excess in the ratios R(D)\mathcal{R}(D) and R(D)\mathcal{R}(D^*) in 5 dimensional Universal Extra Dimensional scenario with non-vanishing boundary localized terms. This model is conventionally known as non-minimal Universal Extra Dimensional model. We obtain the allowed parameter space in accordance with constraints coming from BcτνB_c \to \tau \nu decay, as well as those from the electroweak precision tests.
