Flavoured axions in the tail of Bq → μ + μ − and B → γ * form factors

Abstract We discuss how LHC di-muon data collected to study B q → μμ can be used to constrain light particles with flavour-violating couplings to b-quarks. Focussing on the case of a flavoured QCD axion, a, we compute the decay rates for B q → μμa and the SM background process B q → μμγ near the kin...
