A test of lepton universality, performed by measuring the ratio of the branching fractions of the B 0 → K * 0 µ + µ − and B 0 → K * 0 e + e − decays, R K * 0 , is presented. The K * 0 meson is reconstructed in the final state K + π − , which is required to have an invariant mass within 100 MeV/c 2 of the known K * (892) 0 mass. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 3 fb −1 , collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The ratio is measured in two regions of the dilepton invariant mass squared, q 2 , to be− 0.07 (stat) ± 0.03 (syst) for 0.045 < q 2 < 1.1 GeV 2 /c 4 , 0.69 + 0.11 − 0.07 (stat) ± 0.05 (syst) for 1.1 < q 2 < 6.0 GeV 2 /c 4 .The corresponding 95.4% confidence level intervals are [0.52, 0.89] and [0.53, 0.94]. The results, which represent the most precise measurements of R K * 0 to date, are compatible with the Standard Model expectations at the level of 2.1-2.3 and 2.4-2.5 standard deviations in the two q 2 regions, respectively.

A measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of the decays B þ → K þ μ þ μ − and B þ → K þ e þ e − is presented. The proton-proton collision data used correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb −1 recorded with the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. For the dilepton mass-squared range 1.1 < q 2 < 6.0 GeV 2 =c 4 the ratio of branching fractions is measured to be R K ¼ 0.846 þ0.060 −0.054 þ0.016 −0.014 , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. This is the most precise measurement of R K to date and is compatible with the standard model at the level of 2.5 standard deviations.

We present a measurement of form-factor-independent angular observables in the decay B(0)→K*(892)(0)μ(+)μ(-). The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb(-1), collected by the LHCb experiment in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. Four observables are measured in six bins of the dimuon invariant mass squared q² in the range 0.1
