Pinning Down QCD Contributions to Flavour Anomalies
This study delves into flavour anomalies, exploring the implications of the observed deviations and the role of QCD effects. Through detailed analyses of transition matrix elements and dressed vertices, the investigation sheds light on the potential influence of new particles outside the Standard Model. The Bethe-Salpeter equations are employed to comprehensively evaluate the contributions of QCD to flavour-changing neutral currents. The research aims to enhance the understanding of flavour physics by considering quarks top and bottom and determining transition form factors.
