Abstract

We present a measurement of angular observables and a test of lepton flavor universality in the B→K∗ℓ+ℓ−B\to K^\ast \ell^+\ell^- decay, where ℓ\ell is either ee or μμ. The analysis is performed on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 fb−1711~\mathrm{fb}^{-1} containing 772×106772\times 10^{6} BBˉB\bar B pairs, collected at the Υ(4S)Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy e+e−e^+e^- collider KEKB. The result is consistent with Standard Model (SM) expectations, where the largest discrepancy from a SM prediction is observed in the muon modes with a local significance of 2.6σ2.6σ.
