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.
