Summary
LHCb searched for rare b decays in many final states with high precision
Quite a few 2/3-sigma level tension with SM:
โข b โ sll BR, P5โ, R(K), R(K*), โฆ
Most results fully exploiting Run I data, intensive work with Run II ongoing (4 times more b yield expected!)
End of Run II pp collision but not end of the storyโฆ
A busy schedule for upgrade will provide ever higher luminosity
Hence higher precision and more possibilities
New ideas / interpretations welcome!
