A search is performed for a heavy particle decaying into different-flavour, dilepton final states, using 139 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV collected in 2015-2018 by the ATLAS detector at the Large…
A search is conducted for new resonant and non-resonant high-mass phenomena in dielectron and dimuon final states. The search uses 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data, collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at…
Quark and lepton flavor physics presents us with a basic question: Can we understand the pattern of masses and mixings of the known quarks and leptons, and how do present and proposed measurements help to advance that goal? Topics discussed…
Semileptonic charged current $b \to c l^- \overline{\nu}_l$ decays offer a compelling avenue to probe the limits of the Standard Model and investigate lepton flavor universality (LFU). While the SM maintains flavor universality, new physics…
We present results of global fits of all relevant experimental data on rare $b \to s$ decays. We observe significant tensions between the Standard Model predictions and the data. After critically reviewing the possible sources of…
Results are presented from a search for charged-lepton flavor violating (CLFV) interactions in top quark production and decay in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The events are required to contain one oppositely charged…
Flavor-breaking interactions due to heavy new physics can be probed at a 10 TeV muon collider in the high-energy production of quarks and leptons. The high collision energy mitigates the suppression of the new interactions, offering…
We present the measurements of electrons and muons from the semi-leptonic decays of heavy-flavour hadrons measured in the central and forward rapidity regions with ALICE in pp, Pb-Pb, and p-Pb, collisions at the LHC. The pT-differential…
Recent results from the LHC's first run have revealed intriguing departures from lepton flavour universality in the semi-leptonic decays of $B$-mesons. We discuss the complementary role that rare kaon decays can provide in testing new…
Squark and gluino decays are governed by the same mixing matrices as the contributions to flavour violating loop transitions of B-mesons. This allows for possible direct correlations between flavour non-diagonal observables in B and…
We consider theories where lepton flavor is violated, in particular concentrating on the four fermion operator consisting of three electrons and a tau. Strong constraints are available from existing searches for tau -> eee, requiring the…
In recent years, PHENIX has studied many important observables related to heavy-flavor physics through their leptonic decay measurements including the invariant yield of electrons from nonphotonic sources, and prompt single muons, both of…
Precision determinations of the flavour sector allow the search for indirect new physics signatures. At the forefront of these studies are the determinations of interference of new physics with known $\upDelta F=1$ and $\upDelta F=2$…
We study the impact of contact interactions involving two leptons (electrons or muons) and two $b$-quarks ($b \bar{b} \ell^+ \ell^-$) on the high-mass di-lepton region at the LHC. We consider different selections of $b$-tagged jet…
A search is conducted for both resonant and non-resonant high-mass new phenomena in dielectron and dimuon final states. The search uses 3.2 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data, collected at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV by the ATLAS experiment…
We confront the indications of lepton flavor universality (LFU) violation observed in semi-tauonic $B$ meson decays with new physics (NP) searches using high $p_T$ tau leptons at the LHC. Using effective field theory arguments we correlate…
The subject of heavy flavour decays as probes for physics at and beyond the TeV scale is covered from the experimental perspective. Emphasis is placed on the more traditional Beyond the Standard Model topics that have potential for impact…
Recent hints for lepton-universality violation in $b\to c\ell\nu$ and $b\to s\ell\ell$ transitions could imply the existence of lepton-flavour violating $b$ decays. The LHCb experiment is well suited for the search for these decays due to…
The ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC has conducted first systematic studies of heavy-flavour hadron production in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 2.76 TeV. In pp collisions the differential…
A search for nonresonant new physics phenomena in high-mass dilepton events produced in association with b-tagged jets is performed using proton-proton collision data collected in 2016$-$2018 by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, at a…
