"Leptoquarks: Theory outlook", Admir Greljo

Leptoquarks are quite common in models beyond the SM and therefore subject to an intensive search program at ATLAS and CMS. Moreover, recent hints of lepton universality violation in semileptonic B-meson decays strengthened the interest in leptoquarks. I will review the physics of a TeV-scale leptoquark, emphasizing the importance of indirect low-energy constraints on the high-pT phenomenology, as recently done in Phys.Rept. 641 (2016) 1-68. In addition, I will discuss the status of the theoretical predictions for LQ processes, and in particular, present new results on the single LQ + lepton production at NLO in QCD. In the last part of my talk, I will address the B-physics anomalies and the implied leptoquark search strategy, as recently done in JHEP 1711 (2017) 044.

 

"Overview of the search for Leptoquarks in CMS experiment", Abdollah Mohammadi

Leptoquarks(LQ) has been a subject of interest for decades and are predicted in many beyond SM theories. In this presentation, I will review the results of the search for first, second and third generation LQ from CMS experiment using 13 TeV LHC Data.
