Description

The Bs to µµ decay is one of the milestones of the flavor program at the LHC. I will touch on certain aspects of the connection between the experimental and the theoretical observable. I will then discuss the impact of this observable on SM extensions, focusing on minimally model-dependent frameworks such as MFV or partial compositeness. It turns out that its constraining power is, depending on the framework, either comparably strong or strikingly stronger than that of Z-peak observables measured at LEP.
