B decay anomalies and dark matter from strong dynamics
Abstract
Indications of lepton flavor universality violation in semileptonic B decays to K or K* and muons or electrons can be explained by leptoquark exchange. I present a model in which the leptoquark is a bound state of constituents charged under a new confining SU(N HC) hypercolor interaction. The lightest neutral bound state in the theory is an asymmetric dark matter candidate, that might be directly detectable through its magnetic dipole moment interaction.
