Leptoquarks in B-meson anomalies: simplified models and HL-LHC discovery prospects

Abstract

I will review simplified models with leptoquarks, which can explain recent anomalies in $B$-meson physics, and I will indicate the High-Luminosity LHC prospects for testing these theories, with a special focus to the efficient channel of pair leptoquark production in the $t\bar{t}$ plus missing energy final state.
