abstract

Motivated by the recent measurement of the dimuon asymmetry by the D{\O} collaboration, which could be interpreted as an enhanced decay rate difference in the neutral $B_d$-meson system, we investigate the possible size of new-physics contributions to $\Delta \Gamma_d$. In particular, we perform model-independent studies of non-standard effects associated to the dimension-six current-current operators $(\bar{d} p)(\bar p^{\hspace{0.25mm}\prime} b)$ with $p,p^\prime= u,c$ as well as $(\bar{d}b) (\bar\tau\tau)$. In both cases we find that for certain flavour or Lorentz structures of the operators sizable deviations of $\Delta \Gamma_d$ away from the Standard Model expectation cannot be excluded in a model-independent fashion.

Impact of Hadronic Resonances on $B\to K^{(*)}\tau^+\tau^-$ decays

hep-ph · 2026-05-20 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Including resonant contributions from LHCb muon data enhances standard model predictions for B to K(*) tau tau decays and makes short-distance new physics comparable to or larger than resonant effects over the full q2 range.
