The standard model of particle physics currently provides our best description of
fundamental particles and their interactions. The theory predicts that the different charged …

Tests of lepton universality in B 0→ KS 0 ℓ+ ℓ-and B+→ K*+ ℓ+ ℓ-decays where ℓ is either an
electron or a muon are presented. The differential branching fractions of B 0→ KS 0 e+ e …

One of the most interesting puzzles in particle physics today is that new physics is expected
at the TeV energy scale to solve the hierarchy problem, and stabilises the Higgs mass, but …

The LHCb Collaboration has recently released a new study of B+→ K+ ℓ+ ℓ-and B→ K* 0 ℓ+
ℓ-(ℓ= e, μ) decays, testing lepton universality with unprecedented accuracy using the whole …

A bstract Rare b hadron decays are considered excellent probes of new semileptonic four-
fermion interactions of microscopic origin. However, the same interactions also correct the …

The first simultaneous test of muon-electron universality using B+→ K+ ℓ+ ℓ-and B 0→ K* 0
ℓ+ ℓ-decays is performed, in two ranges of the dilepton invariant-mass squared, q 2. The …

An angular analysis of the B 0→ K* 0 (→ K+ π-) μ+ μ-decay is presented using a dataset
corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb-1 of pp collision data collected with the …

Heavy flavour physics provides excellent opportunities to indirectly search for new physics at
very high energy scales and to study hadron properties for deep understanding of the strong …

A measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of the decays B+→ K+ μ+ μ-and B+→ K+
e+ e-is presented. The proton-proton collision data used correspond to an integrated …

We present an angular analysis of the B+→ K*+(→ KS 0 π+) μ+ μ-decay using 9 fb-1 of pp
collision data collected with the LHCb experiment. For the first time, the full set of CP …
