abstract
We report a measurement of the branching fraction ratios R(D(*)) of Bbar -> D(*) tau- nubar_tau relative to Bbar -> D()* l- nubar_l (where l = e or mu) using the full Belle data sample of 772 x 10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The measured values are R(D)= 0.375 +- 0.064(stat.) +- 0.026(syst.) and R(D*) = 0.293 +- 0.038(stat.) +- 0.015(syst.). The analysis uses hadronic reconstruction of the tag-side B meson and purely leptonic tau decays. The results are consistent with earlier measurements and do not show a significant deviation from the standard model prediction.

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.
Introduces a reconstructible angular distribution for B to D* tau nu decays via tau to lepton chain to extract new physics parameters, projecting 5-6% sensitivities from simulation and lattice form factors.
Partial compositeness in the minimal fundamental partial compositeness (MFPC) model explains B-meson flavour anomalies while also solving the SM naturalness problem.
Angular observables in B→D(*)ℓν decays can distinguish Lorentz structures of new physics contributions fitted to measured R(D(*)) ratios, even when those ratios agree with the Standard Model.
ATLAS reports a measurement of high-mass ttbar ll production with no observed deviation from the Standard Model and derives EFT constraints on four-fermion operators from 140 fb^{-1} of Run 2 data.
Radiative corrections introduce up to 7% bias on R(D) measurements in LHCb-like pseudo-experiments when using PHOTOS for soft-photon simulation.
Four models for combined explanation of B anomalies are tested with general couplings, excluding three and constraining the fourth.
Semileptonic B decays to mixed axial-vector mesons show branching ratios and polarization observables that vary strongly with the D1 mixing angle in the covariant light-front quark model.
A tauphilic leptoquark model with S1 explaining R(D(*)), ~R2 fitting B to K nu nu via right-handed coefficients, and S3 satisfying Delta m_Bs via mixing predicts subdominant negative C_VL, dominant positive C_SL, C9^LQ approx +1, and masses below 3 TeV.
Model-independent calculation of differential branching ratio, forward-backward asymmetry, polarization, and angular coefficients in Bs → K* μ+μ- with 1D and 2D new physics scenarios in C7^NP, C9^(prime)NP, and C10^(prime)NP showing deviations from SM.
LHCb measures R(D*) and R(J/ψ); combined LHCb+Belle data yield 3.1σ tension with SM in R(D) and R(D*).
Review of the room left for B-decay anomalies inside the minimal low-energy leptoquark gauge model with SU(4)_C ⊗ SU(2)_L ⊗ U(1)_R symmetry.
