The R_K measurement by LHCb suggests non-standard lepton non-universality (LNU) to occur in b -> s l+ l- transitions, with effects in muons rather than electrons. A number of other measurements of b -> s l+ l- transitions by LHCb and…
The recent successes of the SM do not weaken the arguments in favour of New Physics residing at the TeV scale. Finding and identifying it represents the prime challenge for a generation of high energy physicists. To differentiate between…
