The symmetry Zdiag 17 , contained in Gf, remains preserved by the leptoquark couplings, at leading order, and efficiently suppresses couplings of the leptoquark to the first generation of quarks and/or electrons, thus avoiding many stringent experimental bounds. The strongest constraints on the parameter space are imposed by the radiative charged lepton flavor violating decays a -mu y and $\mu$-ey. A detailed analytical and numerical study demonstrates the feasibility to simultaneously explain the data on the lepton flavor universality ratios R(D) and R(D*) and the muon anomalous magnetic moment, while passing the experimental bounds from all other considered flavor observables.", optnote="WOS:001092627100005", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5778), last updated on Wed, 15 Nov 2023 17:01:41 +0000", issn="2470-0010", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.108.075014", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.06197", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.108.075014", language="English" }
