R(D**) at Belle II with leptonic τ decaysAriane Frey, •Noreen Rauls, and Benjamin Schwenker — II. Physikalisches Institut, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Friedrich-Hund-Platz 1, 37077 Göttingen, Deutschland

Semileptonic B meson decays to τ leptons are used to probe the standard model. This can be investigated in the rate of the semitauonic decay BD** τ ν, which can be enhanced, for instance, by the presence of an additional charged Higgs boson.
R(D**) is defined as the ratio of the branching ratio BD** τ ν by the averaged branching ratio of both light leptons BD** ℓ ν and is hence sensitive to new physics that couples differently to light and heavy leptons.
At the Belle II experiment, B mesons are always produced in pairs at the Υ(4S) resonance. One B meson is reconstructed using the B decay modes stated above. Here, the τ lepton is reconstructed in the leptonic mode. For the reconstruction of the other B meson the Full Event Interpretation (FEI) is chosen. The FEI algorithm reconstructs the other B meson using multivariate classifiers in various different hadronic decay modes.
This talk will present first studies on the reconstruction of the B meson decays used to extract R(D**) conducted on Belle II Monte Carlo samples as well as an outlook on future plans.
