The CKM unitarity problem: a trace of new physics at the TeV scale?

Abstract After the recent high precision determinations of $$V_{us}$$ Vus and $$V_{ud}$$ Vud , the first row of the CKM matrix shows more than $$4\sigma $$ 4σ deviation from unitarity. Two possible scenarios beyond the Standard Model can be investigated in order to fill the gap. If a 4th non-sequent...
