abstract

This paper reports world averages of measurements of $b$-hadron, $c$-hadron, and $\tau$-lepton properties obtained by the Heavy Flavor Averaging Group using results available through September 2018. In rare cases, significant results obtained several months later are also used. For the averaging, common input parameters used in the various analyses are adjusted (rescaled) to common values, and known correlations are taken into account. The averages include branching fractions, lifetimes, neutral meson mixing parameters, CP violation parameters, parameters of semileptonic decays, and Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements.

  1. Measurement of B meson production fraction ratios in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV using open-charm and charmonium decays

    hep-ex 2026-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Production fraction ratios of B+, B0, and B0_s mesons at 13 TeV are measured with open-charm and charmonium decays, providing absolute normalizations and confirming isospin symmetry.

  2. Testing perturbative QCD calculations with beauty-meson production in proton-proton collisions with ALICE

    hep-ex 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The B0 production cross section in pp collisions at 13.6 TeV is measured at midrapidity down to pT = 1 GeV/c and agrees with pQCD calculations within uncertainties.

  3. Quantum Tomography in Neutral Meson and Antimeson Systems

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The complete flavor density matrix of a neutral meson-antimeson pair can be reconstructed from time-dependent semileptonic decay rates, with B_s^0 and K^0 the most favorable systems.

  4. The Higgs boson decay $h \rightarrow bs$ in the NB-LSSM

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Under B̄ o Xsγ constraints, NB-LSSM parameters can raise Br(h o bs) to ~10^{-5}, orders of magnitude above the SM, while remaining consistent with Higgs mass and signal strengths.

  5. BSM: Extended Scalar Sectors

    hep-ph 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    An updated review chapter on extended scalar sectors, their constraints, dark matter and CP violation links, and future collider searches.
