Abstract The standard model of particle physics currently provides our best description fundamental particles and their interactions. theory predicts that the different charged leptons, electron, muon tau, have identical electroweak interaction strengths. Previous measurements shown a wide range decays are consistent with this principle lepton universality. This article presents evidence for breaking universality in beauty-quark decays, significance 3.1 deviations, based on proton–proton...

We present an angular analysis of the $B^{+}\rightarrow K^{\ast+}(\rightarrow K_{S}^{0}\pi^{+})\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay using 9$\,\mbox{fb}^{-1}$ $pp$ collision data collected with LHCb experiment.
