Status of B to D(*) τ ν decays in two-Higgs-doublet models

Abstract: In this talk I consider the current status of B → D ( * ) τν decays in the context of two-Higgs-doublet models. The BaBar collaboration has reported an excess in semileptonic b → cτν transitions that has gathered recent interest as a possible signature of new physics. The sensitivity of these decays to tree-level charged Higgs boson contributions is discussed, taking into account the constraints from other semileptonic and leptonic meson decays in which the charged Higgs would enter at the same level.

“…For the best fit value g S = −0.37 the branching ratio is suppressed by the factor r 2 0.36 with respect to SM, while also large enhancement (r 2 84) is allowed for g S 1.8 ± 0.4 i. The possible large enhancement by the same operator, in the context of Two Higgs Doublet models was also recently reported in [70]. One should note that the production rate of the B c meson at high energy colliders is several orders of magnitude smaller than for other B mesons [71], and the observation prospects for B c leptonic channels are not very promising.…”

“…Those theoretical values are consistent with other predictions calculated using various approaches, such as the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) [14,15], the lattice QCD (LQCD) [16][17][18], the light-cone sum rules (LCSR) [19,20]. Since the theoret-ical predictions are generally smaller than the measured ones, this difference may indicate new physics beyond the SM [21][22][23][24].…”

“…Experimentally, the BABAR Collaboration measured the semi-leptonic decays B → D ( * ) lν l in 2012 [1][2][3], and these decays were also measured by the Belle [4][5][6] and LHCb Collaborations [7] in 2015. Theoretically, the semi-leptonic decays B → D ( * ) lν l are studied by the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) [8], perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach [9,10], light-cone sum rules (LCSR) [11][12][13][14], and the lattice QCD theory [15,16] within the framework of Standard Model (SM) and the new physics model [17][18][19].…”
