In recent years, experiments revealed intriguing hints for new physics (NP) in semi-leptonic $B$ decays. Both in charged current processes, involving $b \to c \tau \nu$ transitions, and in the neutral currents $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$, a…
The persisting anomalous data in semileptonic B-decays point towards New Physics models exhibiting large sources of Lepton Flavour Universality Violation. In this work we generalise previous studies by considering frameworks which include…
The anomalies in rare $B$ decays endure. We present results of an updated global analysis that takes into account the latest experimental input -- in particular the recent results on $R_K$ and BR$(B_s \to \mu^+\mu^-)$ -- and that…
The recent LHCb measurement of $R_{K^*}$ in two $q^2$ bins, when combined with the earlier measurement of $R_K$, strongly suggests lepton flavour non-universal new physics in semi-leptonic $B$ meson decays. Motivated by these intriguing…
Motivated by the recent LHCb announcement of a $3.1\sigma$ violation of lepton-flavor universality in the ratio $R_K=\Gamma(B\to K\mu^+\mu^-)/\Gamma(B\to K e^+ e^-)$, we present an updated, comprehensive analysis of the flavor anomalies…
The $B\to K^*\mu\mu$ decay exhibits deviations with respect to Standard Model expectations and the measurement of the ratio $R_K$ hints at a violation of lepton-flavour universality in $B\to K\ell\ell$ transitions. Both effects can be…
Flavor changing neutral current $|\Delta B|=|\Delta S|=1$ processes are sensitive to possible new physics at the electroweak scale and beyond, providing detailed information about flavor, chirality and Lorentz structure. Recently the LHCb…
$B$ decays proceeding via $b\to c\ell\nu$ transitions with $\ell=e$ or $\mu$ are tree-level processes in the Standard Model. They are used to measure the CKM element $V_{cb}$, as such forming an important ingredient in the determination of…
Flavor-changing neutral current decays such as $b \to s \bar{\ell} \ell$ are highly suppressed in the Standard Model (SM) and therefore provide sensitive tests for new physics. Persistent tensions between SM predictions and experimental…
We perform a data-driven analysis of new physics (NP) effects in exclusive $b \to s \ell^+\ell^-$ decays in a model-independent effective theory approach with dimension six operators considering scalar, pseudo-scalar, vector and…
We present constraints on Wilson coefficients from a combined fit to data from top-quark and beauty-physics measurements within the Standard Model effective field theory. We consider present data on top-quark pair production and decay,…
Leptoquarks are hypothetical new particles, which couple quarks directly to leptons. They experienced a renaissance in recent years as they are prime candidates to explain the so-called \textit{flavor anomalies}, i.e. the deviations between…
We explore a scenario of New Physics entering the description of $B\to K^{(\ast )} \mu \mu$ decay through couplings to the operators ${\cal O}_{9,10}^\prime$, satisfying $C_9^\prime = - C_{10}^\prime$. From the current data on ${\cal…
Motivated by recent experimental measurements on flavour physics, in tension with Standard Model predictions, we perform an updated analysis of New Physics violating Lepton Flavour Universality, by using the effective Lagrangian approach…
In this work, a comprehensive analysis for processes related to $b\to c\bar{u}q~(q=d, s)$ transitions are carried out, including new physics contributions. In light of a recent tension between branching fractions for $B_{(s)}\to…
The experimental measurements on flavour physics, in tension with Standard Model predictions, exhibit large sources of Lepton Flavour Universality violation. This note summarises an analysis of the effects of the global fits to the Wilson…
The long-standing anomaly in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon indicates the presence of chirality violating new physics contributions. A possible solution involves scalar leptoquarks with left- and right-handed couplings to the top…
We perform an analysis of the $b\to c\tau\nu$ data, including $R(D^{(*)})$, $R(J/\psi)$, $P_\tau(D^{*})$ and $F_L^{D^*}$, within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). We fit the $B\to D^{(*)}$ hadronic form factors in the HQET parametrization…
Assuming the source of the anomalies observed recently in $b \to s$ data to be new physics, there is a priori no reason to believe that - in the effective field theory language - only one type of operator is responsible for the tensions. We…
A vector leptoquark at the TeV scale, mostly coupled to the fermions of the third generation, is the preferred option to explain the hints of lepton flavor universality violation in the decays of B-mesons. It seems interesting to assume…
