Analysis of b→ cττ anomalies using weak effective Hamiltonian with complex couplings
Abstract
Recently, the experimental measurements of the branching ratios and different polarization asymmetries for the processes occurring through flavor-changing-charged current b→ cττ transitions by BABAR, Belle, and LHCb show some sparkling differences with the corresponding SM predictions. Assuming the left handed neutrinos, we add the dimension-six vector, (pseudo-)scalar, and tensor operators with complex WCs to the SM WEH. Together with 60%, 30% and 10% constraints coming from the branching ratio of Bcττ, we analyze the parametric space of these new physics WCs accommodating the current anomalies in the purview of the most recent HFLAV data of Rτ/μ,e(D), Rτ/μ,e(D*) and Belle data of FL(D*) and Pτ(D*). Furthermore, we derive the sum rules which correlate these observables with Rτ/μ,e(D) and Rτ/μ,e(D*). Using the best-fit points of the new complex WCs along with the latest measurements of Rτ/μ,e(D(*)), we predict the numerical values of the observable Rτ/(c), Rτ/μ(J/) and Rτ/(Xc) from the sum rules. Apart from finding the correlation matrix among the observables under consideration, we plot them graphically which is useful to discriminate different NP scenarios. Finally, we study the impact of these NP couplings on various angular and the CP triple product asymmetries, that could be measured in some ongoing and future experiments. The precise measurements of these observables are important to check the SM and extract the possible NP.
