Abstract

We study rare leptonic decays of vector BB mesons in the scalar leptoquark and family non-universal ZZ^\prime models. We constrain these new couplings by using the measured branching fractions of Bs,dμ+μB_{s,d} \to \mu^+ \mu^- processes and the existing Bs,d0Bˉs,d0B_{s,d}^0-\bar B_{s,d}^0 mixing data. We estimate the branching fractions of Bs,dμ+μB_{s,d}^* \to \mu^+ \mu^- in both the models, which are found to be reasonably enhanced from their corresponding standard model values and within the reach of Run 2-3 of LHC.
