Anomalies in $B$-decays and $U(2)$ flavour symmetry

Abstract

The collection of a few anomalies in semileptonic $B$-decays invites to speculate about the emergence of some strikingly new phenomena. Here we offer a possible interpretation of these anomalies in the context of a weakly broken $U(2{)}^5$ flavour symmetry and lepto-quark mediators.
