The isospin asymmetry in $B \to K^* μ^+ μ^-$ using AdS/QCD

We compute the isospin asymmetry distribution in the rare dileptonic decay $B \to K^* μ^+ μ^-$, in the dimuon mass squared ($q^2$) region below the $J/Ψ$ resonance, using non-perturbative inputs as predicted by the anti-de Sitter/Quantum Chromodynamics (AdS/QCD) correspondence and by Sum Rules. We predict a positive asymmetry at $q^2=0$ which flips sign in the region $q^2 \in [1,2]~\mbox{GeV}^2$ to remain small ($\le 2\%$) and negative for larger $q^2$. While our predictions are distinct as $q^2 \to 0$, they become hardly model-dependent $q^2 \ge 4~\mbox{GeV}^2$. We compare our predictions to the most recent LHCb data.
