abstract

A search for pair production of scalar and vector leptoquarks (LQs) each decaying to a muon and a bottom quark is performed using proton-proton collision data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. No excess above standard model expectation is observed. Scalar (vector) LQs with masses less than 1810 (2120) GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level, assuming a 100% branching fraction of the LQ decaying to a muon and a bottom quark. These limits represent the most stringent to date.

  1. Matter Unification and Lepton Flavour Violation

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Muon-to-electron conversion at Mu2e can probe quark–lepton unification scales up to ~10^4 TeV in the minimal SU(4)_C×SU(2)_L×U(1)_R model, even where rare kaon decays are suppressed by unknown mixing angles.

  2. Jet Substructure Probe on Scalar Leptoquark Models via Top Polarization

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A simulation study projects up to 5.4 sigma discovery significance for scalar leptoquarks at the HL-LHC and up to 3.2 sigma separation between the S3 and R2 models using a BDT score.
