Leptoquark Flavor Patterns and B Decay Anomalies — Gudrun Hiller², Dennis Loose², and •Kay Schönwald¹ — ¹DESY — ²TU Dortmund

By embedding leptoquarks into flavor symmetries that explain masses and mixings in the SM it is possible to construct patterns for the leptoquarks’ couplings to the SM fermions. These patterns are used to address current B decay anomalies, namely R_D^(*) and R_K.

We find that effects in R_D^(*) are generally too small to account for the experimental data, while a natural explanation of R_K is possible.
