Anomalies in the flavour sector: experimental overview — •Stefanie Reichert — Technische Universität Dortmund

Over the past years, numerous tests of the Standard Model have been performed and some deviations from the Standard Model in the flavour sector have been found at different experiments, including LHCb, Babar and Belle. A pattern of anomalies has emerged in flavour changing neutral current b → sℓℓ transitions, including measurements of angular distributions, decay rates and tests of lepton flavour universality. Further deviations from the Standard Model have been observed in b → c ℓ ν decays. The entity of these observed anomalies points towards possible effects of new physics. To shed light onto the nature of those anomalies, the extension of existing measurements to datasets with increased statistics and the inclusion of novel approaches are required. Promising analyses in the quest for new physics include the search for lepton flavour violating decays and the understanding of the tension of inclusive vs. exclusive measurements of the quark mixing matrix elements. This talk gives an overview of the most intriguing anomalies observed in the flavour sector and presents an outlook to possible future measurements.
