Description

We use the framework of asymptotically safe quantum gravity to derive predictions
for scalar leptoquark solutions to the b → s flavor anomalies. The presence
of an interactive UV fixed point in the system of gauge and Yukawa couplings imposes a set of boundary conditions at the Planck scale, which allows one to determine low-energy values of the leptoquark Yukawa matrix elements. As a consequence, the allowed leptoquark mass range can be significantly narrowed down. We find that a consistent asymptotic safety-driven solution to the b → s anomalies predicts a leptoquark with the mass of 4 - 7 TeV, entirely within the reach of a future hadron-hadron collider.
