Abstract
Precision measurement of the flavour-changing neutral current transition of a b-quark to an s-quark and two leptons (b->sll) have shown some anomalous results compared to Standard Model predictions over the past decade. These anomalous results have primarily been observed in decays to muons. The existence of a new physics amplitude can cause a sizable interference effect and explain the observed anomalies. However, interference from underestimated hadronic effects also have the potential to explain the anomalies. In this talk, I will introduce the different types of b->sll measurements with a focus on LHCb and how the results indicate the presence of new physics. I will also provide detail on ongoing analyses which aim to measure the new physics couplings while accounting for the interference from hadronic effects.
Series This talk is part of the Cavendish HEP Seminars series.
