Measurement of the branching ratio ofB¯D(*)τ

Abstract: We report a measurement of the branching fraction ratios R(D ( * ) ) ofB → D ( * ) τ −ν τ relative tō B → D ( * ) −ν (where = e or µ) using the full Belle data sample of 772 × 10 6 BB pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e − collider. The measured values are R(D) = 0.375 ± 0.064(stat.) ± 0.026(syst.) and R(D * ) = 0.293 ± 0.038(stat.) ± 0.015(syst.). The analysis uses hadronic reconstruction of the tag-side B meson and purely leptonic τ decays. The re… Show more

“…For the light Higgs signal strengths and heavy Higgs searches we use the most up-to-date ATLAS and CMS publications and pre-prints [64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81], applying the narrow width approximation. We do not make use of (semi-)tauonic B decay observables (that is Br(B → τ ν) and Br(B → D ( * ) τ ν)), which would only be relevant in type II [82], because the existing tension between the measurements [83][84][85] and the corresponding SM predictions cannot be accommodated in the 2HDM with a softly broken Z 2 symmetry [86].…”

“…Very recently, in Ref [7], the authors predicted the value of R D Ã to be 0.260 AE 0.008. Comparing with the current world averages of R D ¼ 0.407 AE 0.039 AE 0.024 and R D Ã ¼ 0.304 AE 0.013 AE 0.007 from BABAR [8], Belle [9][10][11], and LHCb [12], the combined deviation currently stands at about 4.1σ. For definiteness, we report in Table I the current status of the experimentally measured ratio of branching ratios R D and R D Ã [13].…”
