Starting from the most general effective Hamiltonian describing the b → cūd ( s ) transitions, we compute NP contributions to the theoretical predictions of B -meson lifetime and of B -mixing observables. The well-known lifetime ratio τ ( B + )/ τ ( B d ) and the experimental bound on the semi-leptonic CP asymmetry $$ {a}_{sl}^d $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:msubsup> <mml:mi>a</mml:mi> <mml:mi>sl</mml:mi> <mml:mi>d</mml:mi> </mml:msubsup> </mml:math> , provide strong, complementary constraints on some of the NP Wilson coefficients.enCC BYPhysicsPArticle physicsHamiltonian (control theory)AsymmetryFactorizationQuantum chromodynamicsB mesonObservableMesonQuantum mechanicsAlgorithmArticle10.1007/jhep09(2023)028urn:nbn:de:hbz:467-87292
