Dear BaBar Colleagues,

The following message was posted to the Babar physanal-HN by the three members of BaBar who
are authors on this review of the B->D(*)taunu review just published in Nature
(Vera Luth, Bob Kowalewski and Manuel Franco Sevilla)  and I believe the wider BaBar audience
would be interested in this so I’m sending it to you.
Enjoy!

 regards

 Mike

Dear Colleagues,

Today a review entitled "A challenge to lepton universality in B-meson decays" was published in NATURE: Vol  546, page 227.
This was an invited paper with  seven authors:
Gregory Ciezarek (LHCb), Manuel Franco Sevilla, Brian Hamilton (LHCb), Robert Kowalewski, Thomas Kuhr (Belle), Vera Luth, Yutaro Sato (Belle).

You should be able to look at the paper by opening the first link below, but not print or save it.
I attach the latest version created by the authors in LATEX, an earlier version has been posted to the arXiv.
The journal version includes acknowledgements:
We recognize the contributions and dedication of our colleagues in the large international collaborations supporting the operation of the BaBar (M.F.S., R.K., V.L.), Belle (T.K., Y.S.) and LHCb (G.C., B.H.) detectors, the data processing and the data analyses on which the results presented in this Review are based. None of this would have been achieved without the efforts of the teams at SLAC, KEK and CERN who achieved excellent beam conditions and delivered high luminosities of the e+e− and pp storage rings over many years. We acknowledge support from the Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) of the Netherlands, the US National Science Foundation and Department of Energy, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada, the Excellence Cluster of the DFG of Germany: Origin and Structure of the Universe, and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS).

LHCb expects to publish two papers before the end pf this year that will hopefully confirm our measurements!

Thank you all for many years of support and collaboration,
Vera, Bob. and Manuel.
