Effective theory approach to new physics with flavour: general framework and a leptoquark example by Marzia Bordone, Oscar Catà, Thorsten Feldmann

“…Our formalism represents an extension of the well-known minimal-flavour-violation approach, and uses Froggatt-Nielsen charges to define the flavour power-counting. As a relevant illustration of the formalism, we apply it to the flavour structures which could be induced by a U1 vector leptoquark, which represents one of the possible explanations for the recent hints of flavour non-universality in semileptonic B-decays. …”
