Abstract

We investigate new physics effects on BD()τνB\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu decays in a general and model-independent way. The χ2\chi^2 fits for fractions of the branching ratios R(D())R(D^{(*)}) and other polarization parameters are implemented. We parameterize the relevant Wilson coefficients with a new physics scale and its power together with combined fermionic couplings. Constraints from BcτνB_c\to\tau\nu are imposed such that its branching ratio is less than 30%. For a moderate range of our parameters we find that the new physics scale goes up to 27\lesssim 27 TeV for ordinary new particle contributions. It turns out that the polarization asymmetry of τ\tau for BDB\to D transition can be negative only for a few combinations of the new physics operators. We also discuss related processes BcJ/ΨτνB_c\to J/\Psi\tau\nu and ΛbΛcτν\Lambda_b\to\Lambda_c\tau\nu decays.
