Hunting for leptoquarks

Leptoquark (LQ) models have received increased interest in recent year as compelling explanations of the charged-current 𝐵-meson anomalies known as 𝑅 𝐷 (∗) and the resulting indication of lepton- flavor non-universality. At the LHC, leptoquarks can be searched for in various channels, including pair, single, and resonant production, as well as Drell-Yan. We summarize these different channels and their complementarity. Furthermore, we review the current status of the leptoquark models that can address the 𝑅 𝐷 (∗) anomalies. To that end, we consider the most recent data sets from high- 𝑝 𝑇 tails at the LHC and low-energy precision measurements and highlight their complementary. Moreover, we comment on the future perspectives for LHC searches for these models.

Abstract

Leptoquark (LQ) models have received increased interest in recent year as compelling explanations of the charged-current 𝐵-meson anomalies known as 𝑅 𝐷 (∗) and the resulting indication of lepton- flavor non-universality. At the LHC, leptoquarks can be searched for in various channels, including pair, single, and resonant production, as well as Drell-Yan. We summarize these different channels and their complementarity. Furthermore, we review the current status of the leptoquark models that can address the 𝑅 𝐷 (∗) anomalies. To that end, we consider the most recent data sets from high- 𝑝 𝑇 tails at the LHC and low-energy precision measurements and highlight their complementary. Moreover, we comment on the future perspectives for LHC searches for these models.
