Complementarity of $$B\rightarrow K^{(*)} \mu \bar{\mu }$$ B → K ( ∗ ) μ μ ¯ and $$B\rightarrow K^{(*)} + \textrm{inv}$$ B → K ( ∗ ) + inv for searches of GeV-scale Higgs-like scalars

Abstract The rare decays $$B^+\rightarrow K^+ \mu \bar{\mu }$$ B + → K + μ μ ¯ and $$B^0\rightarrow K^{*0} \mu \bar{\mu }$$ B 0 → K ∗ 0 μ μ ¯ provide the strongest constraints on the mixing of a light scalar with the Higgs boson for GeV-scale masses. The constraints sensitively depend on the branchi...
