Predictions for -baryon lifetimes at NNLO-QCD
Alexander Lenz, Maria Laura Piscopo, Aleksey V. Rusov
Motivated by recent and forthcoming experimental progress, we provide updated predictions for the total decay rates of -baryons, their lifetime ratios and their lifetimes normal…
One-loop matching of QCD currents to power-suppressed two-jet operators
Martin Beneke, Aleksey V. Rusov, Michel Stillger
We compute the matching of QCD quark-antiquark currents onto the set of the two-particle and three-particle two-jet operators in soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) at next-to-l…

Martin Lang, Alexander Lenz, Ali Mohamed +2
Starting from the most general effective Hamiltonian describing non-leptonic -quark decays , we compute analytic expressions for all matching c…
Total decay rates of mesons at NNLO-QCD
Manuel Egner, Matteo Fael, Alexander Lenz +4
We update the Standard Model (SM) predictions for the lifetimes of the , and mesons within the heavy quark expansion (HQE), including the recently determined NNLO-…
Towards a SM prediction for CP violation in charm
Alexander Lenz, Maria Laura Piscopo, Aleksey V. Rusov
We provide an overview of the current experimental and theoretical status of charm CP violation and discuss recent progress in obtaining a Standard Model prediction for $Δa_{\rm CP…
Lifetimes of -hadrons and mixing of neutral -mesons: theoretical and experimental status
Johannes Albrecht, Florian Bernlochner, Alexander Lenz +1
In this article, we review the current status of -mixing and -hadron lifetimes both from experimental and theoretical points of view. Furthermore, we discuss the phenomenolog…
Two body non-leptonic decays from LCSR and implications for
Alexander Lenz, Maria Laura Piscopo, Aleksey V. Rusov
Motivated by the recent measurements of CP violating effects in singly Cabibbo suppressed decays, we revisit the theoretical predictions of these channels. Using up-to-date v…
Non-factorisable effects in the decays and from LCSR
Maria Laura Piscopo, Aleksey Rusov
In light of the current discrepancies between the recent predictions based on QCD factorisation (QCDF) and the experimental data for several non-leptonic colour-allowed two-body $B…
Quark-hadron duality at work: lifetimes of bottom baryons
James Gratrex, Alexander Lenz, Blaženka Melić +3
In the 1990s, very low experimental values for the lifetime ratio triggered a considerable amount of doubt in the applicability of the heavy quark expansion (HQE),…
Taming New Physics in with and
Alexander Lenz, Jakob Müller, Maria Laura Piscopo +1
Inspired by the recently observed tensions between the experimental data and the theoretical predictions, based on QCD factorisation, for several colour-allowed non-leptonic -me…
Disintegration of beauty: a precision study
Alexander Lenz, Maria Laura Piscopo, Aleksey V. Rusov
We update the Standard Model (SM) predictions for -meson lifetimes within the heavy quark expansion (HQE). Including for the first time the contribution of the Darwin operator,…
MUonE, muon and electroweak precision constraints within 2HDMs
Oliver Atkinson, Matthew Black, Christoph Englert +2
Two Higgs doublet models are attractive scenarios for physics beyond the Standard Model. In particular, lepton-specific manifestations remain contenders to explain the observed dis…
The Flavourful Present and Future of 2HDMs at the Collider Energy Frontier
Oliver Atkinson, Matthew Black, Christoph Englert +3
We study the intersection of flavour and collider physics for Two-Higgs-Doublet models of Type I and II. Drawing from the flavour precision-LHC exotics search complementarity, we a…
Testing the Standard Model with CP-asymmetries in flavour-specific non-leptonic decays
Tim Gershon, Alexander Lenz, Aleksey V. Rusov +1
Motivated by recent indications that the rates of colour-allowed non-leptonic channels are not in agreement with their Standard Model expectations based on QCD factorisation, we in…

Cornering the Two Higgs Doublet Model Type II
Oliver Atkinson, Matthew Black, Alexander Lenz +2
We perform a comprehensive study of the allowed parameter space of the Two Higgs Doublet Model of Type II (2HDM-II). Using the theoretical framework flavio we combine the most rece…
The pion light-cone distribution amplitude from the pion electromagnetic form factor
Shan Cheng, Alexander Khodjamirian, Aleksey V. Rusov
We suggest to probe the pion light-cone distribution amplitude, applying a dispersion relation for the pion electromagnetic form factor. Instead of the standard dispersion relation…

Recent experimental data on several observables in semileptonic -meson decays are found to be in tension with the corresponding Standard Model predictions. Most of these deviati…
