New Physics and Anomalies in B-meson decays
New Physics and Anomalies in B-meson decays
- Event time: 2:00pm
- Event date: 18th March 2015
- Speaker: Marco Nardecchia (DAMTP, University of Cambridge)
- Location: Higgs Centre Seminar Room, Room 4305, James Clerk Maxwell Building (JCMB) James Clerk Maxwell Building Peter Guthrie Tait Road Edinburgh EH9 3FD GB
Event details
In the first part of the talk I will review the status of flavor physics after the first run of the LHC and in particular I will discuss recent results from the LHCb experiment suggesting possible deviations from the SM predictions in semileptonic B-meson decays.
In the second part of the talk I will give an interpretation of the these anomalies via a composite Higgs model, in which both the Higgs and a triplet leptoquarks arise as pseudo-Goldstone bosons of the strong dynamics.
About Particle Physics Theory seminars
The Particle Physics Theory seminar is a weekly series of talks reflecting the diverse interests of the group. Topics include analytic and numerical calculations based on the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, theories exploring new physics, as well as more formal developments in gauge theories and gravity..
