Advanced parametrisations for hadronic form factors
Nienke C. Balz, Florian Herren, Bastian Kubis +2
The rich analytic structure of hadronic form factors makes a theoretically consistent yet easily applicable parametrisation cumbersome. Consequently, most parametrisations are limi…
Form factors and phenomenology of and semileptonic decays to and
Blaženka Melić, Méril Reboud
Motivated by more precise recent measurements of the and decays, we employ state-of-the-art parametrizations to describe the $B_{(s…
Detailed Flavour Symmetry Analysis of Charmless Two-Body -Meson Decays Including Factorizable Corrections
M. Burgos Marcos, M. Reboud, K. K. Vos
We study the decays of mesons into light pseudoscalar mesons under the flavour symmetry. Assuming exact symmetry at the level of the amplitudes leads to a…
Kaon Physics: A Cornerstone for Future Discoveries
Jason Aebischer, Atakan Tugberk Akmete, Riccardo Aliberti +153
The kaon physics programme, long heralded as a cutting-edge frontier by the European Strategy for Particle Physics, continues to stand at the intersection of discovery and innovati…
Constructing model-agnostic likelihoods, a method for the reinterpretation of particle physics results
Lorenz Gärtner, Nikolai Hartmann, Lukas Heinrich +5
Experimental High Energy Physics has entered an era of precision measurements. However, measurements of many of the accessible processes assume that the final states' underlying ki…
Analysis of the resonance in line with unitarity and analyticity constraints
Christoph Hanhart, Stephan Kürten, Méril Reboud +1
We study the inclusive and exclusive cross sections of for center-of-mass energies between 3.70 GeV and 3.83 GeV to infer the mass, width, and couplings…
Maximising the physics potential of decays
Alexander Mclean Marshall, Michael Andrew McCann, Mitesh Patel +3
We present a method that maximises the experimental sensitivity to new physics contributions in decays. This method relies on performing an unbinned maximum l…
Testable Likelihoods for Beyond-the-Standard Model Fits
Anja Beck, Méril Reboud, Danny van Dyk
Studying potential BSM effects at the precision frontier requires accurate transfer of information from low-energy measurements to high-energy BSM models. We propose to use normali…
Computing Tools for Effective Field Theories
Jason Aebischer, Matteo Fael, Javier Fuentes-Martín +30
In recent years, theoretical and phenomenological studies with effective field theories have become a trending and prolific line of research in the field of high-energy physics. In…
Dispersive Analysis of and Form Factors
Nico Gubernari, Méril Reboud, Danny van Dyk +1
We perform the first simultaneous dispersive analysis of the , , and form factors. By means of an improved parametrization, we take into account the fo…
Toward a complete description of decays within the Weak Effective Theory
Domagoj Leljak, Blaženka Melić, Filip Novak +2
We fit the available data on exclusive semileptonic decays within the Standard Model and in the Weak Effective Theory. Assuming Standard Model dynamics, we find…
Dispersive analysis of local form factors
Yasmine Amhis, Marzia Bordone, Méril Reboud
We perform an analysis of local form factors. We use dispersive techniques to provide a model-independent parametrisation of the form factors that can be used in th…

EOS is an open-source software for a variety of computational tasks in flavor physics. Its use cases include theory predictions within and beyond the Standard Model of particle phy…
Composite Dark Matter and a horizontal symmetry
Alexandre Carvunis, Diego Guadagnoli, Meril Reboud +1
We present a model of composite Dark Matter (DM), in which a new QCD-like confining "hypercolor" sector generates naturally stable hyperbaryons as DM candidates and at the same tim…
The Dark Side of 4321
Diego Guadagnoli, Meril Reboud, Peter Stangl
The evidence of Dark Matter (DM) is one of the strongest observational arguments in favour of physics beyond the Standard Model. Despite expectations, a similar evidence has been l…
B-decay discrepancies after Moriond 2019
Jason Aebischer, Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Diego Guadagnoli +3
Following the updated measurement of the lepton flavour universality (LFU) ratio R_K in B -> Kll decays by LHCb, as well as a number of further measurements, e.g. R_K* by Belle and…
A gauged horizontal symmetry and
Diego Guadagnoli, Méril Reboud, Olcyr Sumensari
One of the greatest challenges for models of anomalies is the necessity to produce a large contribution to a quark times a lepton current, , and to avo…

Diego Guadagnoli, Meril Reboud, Roman Zwicky
We discuss a number of strategies to reduce the theoretical error, and make such a measurement a new probe of the interactions that are…
Bs to mu mu gamma from Bs to mu mu
Francesco Dettori, Diego Guadagnoli, Meril Reboud
The Bs to mu mu gamma decay offers sensitivity to a wider set of effective operators than its non-radiative counterpart Bs to mu mu, and a set that is interesting in the light of p…
More Lepton Flavor Violating Observables for LHCb's Run 2
Diego Guadagnoli, Dmitri Melikhov, Meril Reboud
The R_K measurement by LHCb suggests non-standard lepton non-universality (LNU) to occur in b -> s l+ l- transitions, with effects in muons rather than electrons. A number of other…
