Leptoquarks have recently received much attention especially because they may provide an explanation to the $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{K^{(*)}}$ anomalies in rare $B$ meson decays. In a previous paper we proposed a systematic search strategy for…
We show that, up to plausible uncertainties in BR$(B_c\to \tau \nu)$, the $R_2$ leptoquark can simultaneously explain the observation of anomalies in $R_{K^{(*)}}$ and $R_{D^{(*)}}$ without requiring large couplings. The former is achieved…
In the light of recent experimental results from IceCube, LHC searches for scalar leptoquark, and the flavor anomalies $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$, we analyze two scalar leptoquark models with hypercharge $Y=1/6$ and $Y=7/6$. We consider the 53…
Most of the popular explanations of the observed anomalies in the semileptonic $B$-meson decays involve TeV scale Leptoquarks (LQs). Among the various possible LQ models, two particular LQs -- $S_{1}(3, 1, 1/3)$ and $U_{1}(3, 1, 2/3)$ seem…
A TeV scale leptoquark (LQ) is one of the promising explanations of the recent anomalies in the semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons. Among the various LQs, the vector $\rm{U}_1$ is capable of explaining the anomalies in both $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and…
The $U_1$ leptoquark is known to be a suitable candidate for explaining the semileptonic $B$-decay anomalies. We derive precise limits on its parameter space relevant for the anomalies from the current LHC high-$p_{\rm T}$ dilepton data. We…
Leptoquarks provide some of the simplest explanations to the hints of lepton flavor non-universality in $B$ decays. In particular, a new confining gauge group can provide a natural and appealing origin for the leptoquarks. So far, direct…

We study limits from dilepton searches on leptoquark completions to the Standard Model in the parameter space motivated by anomalies in the $b \rightarrow s$ sector. After a full Run-2 analysis by LHCb, the disparity in lepton flavour…
Given the hints of lepton-flavour non-universality in $B$-meson decays, leptoquarks (LQs) are enjoying a renaissance. We propose novel Large Hadron Collider (LHC) searches for such hypothetical states that do not rely on strong production…

The sensitivity of LeHC to different models of "new physics" has been studied, both for the resonance production and in the contact interaction approximation. Expected limits are compared for different running scenarios. Direct leptoquark…

The recent measurement on the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu$ shows a $2.6\sigma$ deviation from the standard model value. We show that it puts an interesting bound on the mass of the second generation leptoquarks. To account for the…
