#CMSPaper 1273 reports a null result on the search for heavy resonances decaying to a muon and a bottom quark, perhaps created by #leptoquarks. This is the world's most sensitive analysis for muon-bottom resonances buff.ly/3PuRhVZ

#CMSPaper 1235: This paper checks for the potential existence of #leptoquarks that interact with leptons and quarks. It examines interactions between top quarks and tau leptons. There is a slight excess at 2.8 standard deviations that prompts further study in Run 3 😇🫣🤓 arxiv.org/abs/2308.07826

a not very sensitive limit plot, this method will definitely be used again with more data I reckon

#CMSPaper 1234: #Leptoquarks are hypothetical particles that interact with leptons and quarks. This result searches for them in (very) rare collisions between a lepton and a quark. The highly innovative method to isolate lepton collisions shows potential for the future!

The most popular New Physics models to explain these discrepancies and those observed in b->s transitions are #leptoquarks, which could be seen directly at the LHC. But there are other possibilities. #LeptonUniversality #FlavourPhysics
