Description
We study the impact of Vector-Like Quarks (VLQs) on rare B-decay processes using updated lower mass bounds from LHCb to define a viable VLQ mass window. Combining symbolic and numerical calculations of one-loop effective vertices within and beyond the Standard Model, we evaluate VLQ contributions to rare decay amplitudes. By comparing our results with recent LHCb and Belle II measurements, we constrain the parameter space and identify regions compatible with deviations from Standard Model predictions. Our findings show that updated VLQ mass bounds significantly affect potential New Physics signals in rare decay channels.
