We study the phenomenology of simplified Z′ models with a global U(2)3 flavour symmetry in the quark sector, broken solely by the Standard Model Yukawa couplings. This flavour symmetry, known as less-minimal flavour violation, protects ΔF=2 processes from dangerously large new physics (NP) effects, and at the same time provides a free complex phase in b→s transitions, allowing for an explanation of the hints for additional direct CP violation in kaon decays (ϵ′/ϵ) and in hadronic B-decays (B→Kπ puzzle). Furthermore, once the couplings of the Z′ boson to the leptons are included, it is possible to address the intriguing hints for NP (above the 5σ level) in b→sl+l− transitions. Taking into account all flavour observables in a global fit, we find that ϵ′/ϵ, the B→Kπ puzzle and b→sl+l− data can be explained simultaneously. Sizeable CP violation in b→sl+l− observables, in particular A8, is predicted, which can be tested in the near future, and an explanation of the B→Kπ and ϵ′/ϵ puzzles leads to effects in di-jet tails at the LHC, that are not far below the current limits. Once b→sl+l− is included, cancellations in di-muon tails, possibly by a second Z′, are required by LHC data.read more

SMEFT ATLAS of $\Delta F=2$ Transitions
TL;DR: In this paper, a model-independent anatomy of the mixing amplitude in the context of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) is presented. But the authors emphasize that this ATLAS depends on whether the down-basis or the up-Basis for SMEFT operators is considered.

Another SMEFT story: Z ′ facing new results on ε ′ / ε, ∆ M K and K → πν ν ¯ $$ \pi \nu \overline{\nu} $$
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the dependence of all these observables on the size of NP still allowed by the data on e′/e and pointed out that the suppression of ∆MK by NP requires the presence of new CP-violating phases with interesting implications for K → π 0l+l− decays.
