Short- vs. long-distance physics in Bto K^((*)) ell^+ell^-: a data-driven analysis
read the original abstract
We analyze data on $B\to K\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$ decays in the whole dilepton invariant mass spectrum with the aim of disentangling short- vs. long-distance contributions. The sizable long-distance amplitudes from $c \bar{c}$ narrow resonances are taken into account by employing a dispersive approach. For each available $q^2=m_{\mu\mu}^2$ bin and each helicity amplitude an independent determination of the Wilson coefficient $C_9$, describing $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions at short distances, is obtained. The consistency of the $C_9$ values thus obtained provides an a posteriori check of the absence of additional, sizable, long-distance contributions. The systematic difference of these values from the Standard Model expectation supports the hypothesis of a non-standard $b\to s \mu^+\mu^-$ amplitude of short-distance origin.

A Dispersive Look at Rare $B$-meson Semileptonic Decays
A global fit of b→s ℓ+ℓ− and b→s νν data finds that hadronic charm-loop effects, not a new short-distance coupling C9, can explain the observed anomalies.

A Dispersive Look at Rare $B$-meson Semileptonic Decays
Lattice-only Dispersive Matrix form factors enlarge large-recoil uncertainties and, with new angular data, favour long-distance hadronic effects over a short-distance C9 New Physics shift.

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

Probing Lepton Flavour Universality with $\Lambda_b$ decays to $\tau^+\tau^-$ final states
The LFU ratio R_Λ^{τ/μ} for Λ_b → Λ τ⁺τ⁻ is predicted in the SM with below-10% uncertainty and can be enhanced by several orders of magnitude in EFT models motivated by b→cτν and b→sμμ anomalies.

Weak Annihilation Contribution to Angular Observables in $B_{c}^+\to D^{\ast+}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ Decays
Weak annihilation contributions are sizable in B_c^+ to D^{*+} lepton pair decays and must be included to obtain reliable Standard Model predictions for angular observables.
