Testing lepton flavor universality in terms of BESⅢ and charm-tau factory data

  • The recent measurements on RK and Rπ imply that there exists a possible violation of the leptonic flavor universality which is one of the cornerstones of the Standard Model. It is suggested that a mixing between sterile and active neutrinos might induce such a violation. In this work we consider the scenarios with one or two sterile neutrinos to explicitly realize the data while the constraints from the available experiments have been taken into account. Moreover, as indicated in literature, the deviation of the real PMNS matrix from the symmetric patterns may be due to a μ-τ asymmetry, therefore the measurements on RD(Ds)eμ=Γ(D(Ds)→ e+νe)/Γ(D(Ds)→ μ+νμ) and RD(Dsτ=Γ(D(Ds)→ μ+νμ)/Γ(D(Ds)→ τ+ντ) (and for some other heavy mesons B± and Bc etc.) may shed more light on the physics responsible for the violation of the leptonic flavor universality. The data of BESⅢ are available to test the universality and that of future charm-tau factories will provide more accurate information. In this work, we will discuss RD(Ds)eμ and RD(Dsτ in detail and also briefly consider the cases for B± and Bc.

Abstract: The recent measurements on RK and Rπ imply that there exists a possible violation of the leptonic flavor universality which is one of the cornerstones of the Standard Model. It is suggested that a mixing between sterile and active neutrinos might induce such a violation. In this work we consider the scenarios with one or two sterile neutrinos to explicitly realize the data while the constraints from the available experiments have been taken into account. Moreover, as indicated in literature, the deviation of the real PMNS matrix from the symmetric patterns may be due to a μ-τ asymmetry, therefore the measurements on RD(Ds)eμ=Γ(D(Ds)→ e+νe)/Γ(D(Ds)→ μ+νμ) and RD(Dsτ=Γ(D(Ds)→ μ+νμ)/Γ(D(Ds)→ τ+ντ) (and for some other heavy mesons B± and Bc etc.) may shed more light on the physics responsible for the violation of the leptonic flavor universality. The data of BESⅢ are available to test the universality and that of future charm-tau factories will provide more accurate information. In this work, we will discuss RD(Ds)eμ and RD(Dsτ in detail and also briefly consider the cases for B± and Bc.
