Scalar leptoquarks and the rare B meson decays

We study some rare decays of $B$ meson involving the quark level transition $b \to q l^+l^- (q=d,s)$ in the scalar leptoquark model. We constrain the leptoquark parameter space using the recently measured branching ratios of $B_{s,d} \to μ^+ μ^-$ processes. Using such parameters, we obtain the branching ratios, direct CP violation parameters and isospin asymmetries in $B \to K μ^+ μ^-$ and $B \to πμ^+ μ^-$ processes. We also obtain the branching ratios for some lepton flavour violating decays $B \to l_i^+ l_j^-$. We find that the various anomalies associated with the isospin asymmetries of $B \to K μ^+ μ^-$ process can be explained in the scalar leptoquark model.
