In the ALP model, lepton flavor violation (LFV) can arise from off-diagonal ALP-lepton couplings ($g_{a\ell_i\ell_j}$), which are absent in the Standard Model. We focus on ALP production via gluon fusion ($pp \to a$) at the Large Hadron…

Leptoquarks (LQs) provide very promising solutions to the tensions between the experimental measurements and the SM predictions of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ and $b\to c\tau\nu$ processes. In this case the LQ masses are in general at the TeV…

LHCb has reported deviations from the Standard Model in $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ transitions for which a new neutral gauge boson is a prime candidate for an explanation. As this gauge boson has to couple in a flavour non-universal way to muons…
