New Physics with LHCb to explain loss of lepton universality, or just gravity?
Stéphane Maes
Abstract
In a multi-fold universe, gravity emerges from Entanglement through the multi-fold mechanisms. As a result, gravity-like effects appear in between entangled particles that they be real or virtual. Long range, massless gravity results from entanglement of massless virtual particles. Entanglement of massive virtual particles leads to massive gravity contributions at very smalls scales. Multi-folds mechanisms also result into a spacetime that is discrete, with a random walk fractal structure and non-commutative geometry that is Lorentz invariant and where spacetime nodes and particles can be modeled with microscopic black holes. All these recover General Relativity (GR) at large scales and semi-classical model remain valid till smaller scale than usually expected. Gravity can therefore be added to the Standard Model resulting into what we defined as SMG. This can contribute to resolving several open issues with the Standard Model without new Physics other than gravity. These considerations hints at a even stronger relationship between gravity and the Standard Model.Recently, there has been a flurry of enthusiasm following announcement of 3.1-sigma violation of lepton universality at LHCb. Many articles, papers and pundits see it as hints of New Physics.In this paper we hypothesize that gravity could explain these observation, instead of New Physics understood as new particles or forces. The proposal can be strongly justified in a multi-fold universe with SMG. It could also make sense, in general, whenever SMG can be motivated.
