B meson semi-leptonic rare decays are sensitive to new physics beyond standard model. We study the B − → π − µ + µ − process and investigate the Majorana neutrino contribution to its decay width. The constraints on the Majorana neutrino mass and mixing parameter are obtained from this decay channel with the latest LHCb data. Utilizing the best fit for the parameters, we study the lepton number violating decay B − → π + µ − µ − , and find its branching ratio is about 6.4 × 10 −10 , which is consistent with the LHCb data reported recently.
We study the Bc meson rare decay in order to search for the Majorana neutrino signal. It is found that the corresponding decay rate is sensitive to the Majorana neutrino mass and mixing angles. The signal of B ± c → l ± 1 l ± 2 M ∓ induced by the Majorana neutrino within the mass region mπ < mn < mB may be observed at LHCb.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
