Description

Rare decays of beauty and charm hadrons and lepton flavour/number violating decays of tau leptons test the flavour structure of the underlying theory at the level of quantum corrections. They provide information on the couplings and masses of heavy virtual particles appearing as intermediate states. A review of recent results obtained by LHCb on these topics will be presented.
