We measure the tau-to-light-lepton ratio of inclusive $B$-meson branching fractions $R(X_{\tau/\ell}) \equiv \mathcal{B}(B\to X \tau \nu)/\mathcal{B}(B \to X \ell \nu)$, where $\ell$ indicates an electron or muon, and thereby test the universality of charged-current weak interactions. We select events that have one fully reconstructed $B$ meson and a charged lepton candidate from $189~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of electron-positron collision data collected with the Belle II detector. We find $R(X_{\tau/\ell}) = 0.228 \pm 0.016~(\mathrm{stat}) \pm 0.036~(\mathrm{syst})$, in agreement with standard-model expectations. This is the first direct measurement of $R(X_{\tau/\ell})$.

    hep-ex 2025-10 accept novelty 8.0

    LHCb reports the first upper limits on B0 → K+π−τ+τ− and Bs0 → K+K−τ+τ− branching fractions, with recast limits of 2.8×10−4 on B0 → K*(892)0 τ+τ− at 95% CL that improve prior bounds by an order of magnitude.

  2. Probing New Physics and CP Violation in $\nu_\tau n \to \Lambda_c \tau^- (\pi^- \nu_\tau)$ and $\bar\nu_\tau p \to \Lambda \tau^+ (\pi^+ \bar\nu_\tau)$

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0

    An azimuthal asymmetry in the pion from tau decays in specific neutrino-hyperon processes provides a CP-odd signal for beyond-Standard-Model physics encoded in dimension-six operators.

  3. Closing the knowledge gap in semileptonic $B\rightarrow X_c\ell\nu$ decays

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    The unmeasured fraction of inclusive semileptonic B to charm decays is dominated by final states without D mesons, likely from baryons and Ds mesons.
