10.1 | 6 | The unobserved transition b → sττ is a promising probe to perform Lepton Flavour Universality tests and search for possible New Physics effects. In this project, the selected student will investigate signal and background characteristics in the decay Λb⁰ → pKτ⁺τ⁻ and develop strategies to maximize background rejection while preserving signal efficiency. The work will involve the use of modern machine-learning techniques, including BDTs, Neural Networks, and hyperparameter optimization tools such as Optuna, applied to realistic LHCb datasets. |
