abstract

We calculate, for the first time using unquenched lattice QCD form factors, the Standard Model differential branching fractions $dB/dq^2(B \to Kll)$ for $l=e, \mu, \tau$ and compare with experimental measurements by Belle, BABAR, CDF, and LHCb. We report on $\mathcal{B}(B \to Kll)$ in $q^2$ bins used by experiment and predict $\mathcal{B}(B \to K \tau \tau) = (1.44 \pm 0.15) 10^{-7}$. We also calculate the ratio of branching fractions $R^\mu_e = 1.00023(63)$ and predict $R^\tau_l = 1.159(40)$, for $l=e, \mu$. Finally, we calculate the "flat term" in the angular distribution of the differential decay rate $F_H^{e, \mu, \tau}$ in experimentally motivated $q^2$ bins.

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

hep-ph · 2026-05-20 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

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.
