Probing the $R_{K^{(*)}}$ Anomaly at a Muon Collider

Guo-yuan Huang, Sudip Jana, Farinaldo S. Queiroz, Werner Rodejohann

英文摘要:

The LHCb measurements of the $μ/ e$ ratio in $B \to K \ell \ell$ decays $(R_{K^{}})$ indicate a deficit with respect to the Standard Model prediction, supporting earlier hints of lepton universality violation observed in the $R_{K^{(*)}}$ ratio. Possible explanations of these $B$-physics anomalies include heavy $Z'$ bosons or scalar and vector leptoquarks mediating $b \to s μ^+ μ^- $. We note that a muon collider can directly measure this process via $μ^+ μ^- \to b \bar s$ and can shed light on the lepton non-universality scenario. Investigating currently discussed center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} = 3$, 6 and 10 TeV, we show that the parameter space of $Z'$ and leptoquark solutions to the $R_{K^{(*)}}$ anomalies can be mostly covered. Effective operators explaining the anomalies can be probed with the muon collider setup $\sqrt{s} = 6~{\rm TeV}$ and integrated luminosity $L = 4~{\rm ab^{-1}}$.
