Searches of lepton-number violation in different processes are very useful to constrain the parameter space of Majorana neutrinos. Here we use available upper bounds on the branching fractions of B^- -> D^0pi^+mu^-mu^- and D^0 -> (pi^-pi^-/K^-pi^-) mu^-mu^- decays to derive constraints on the mass and mixings of Majorana neutrinos by assuming they are produced resonantly in these four-body decays. While the excluded region obtained from B^- decays are competitive with existing limits from three-body D^- and B^- decays, it is shown that experimental improvements on D^0 decays offer a good potential to provide similar results.

Searches for heavy Majorana neutrinos in B- decays in final states containing hadrons plus a mu- mu- pair have been performed using 0.41/fb of data collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The
D+ mu- mu- and D*+ mu- mu- final states can arise from the presence of virtual Majorana neutrinos of any mass. Other final states containing pi+, Ds+, or D0pi+ can be mediated by an on-shell Majorana neutrino. No signals are found and upper limits are set on Majorana neutrino production as a function of mass, and also on the B- decay branching fractions.
With the advent of the LHC, we will be able to probe New Physics (NP) up to energy scales almost one order of magnitude larger than it has been possible with present accelerator facilities. While direct detection of new particles will be the main ave
nue to establish the presence of NP at the LHC, indirect searches will provide precious complementary information, since most probably it will not be possible to measure the full spectrum of new particles and their couplings through direct production. In particular, precision measurements and computations in the realm of flavour physics are expected to play a key role in constraining the unknown parameters of the Lagrangian of any NP model emerging from direct searches at the LHC. The aim of Working Group 2 was twofold: on one hand, to provide a coherent, up-to-date picture of the status of flavour physics before the start of the LHC; on the other hand, to initiate activities on the path towards integrating information on NP from high-pT and flavour data.
Measurements of $C!P$ observables in $B^pm rightarrow D K^pm$ and $B^pm rightarrow D pi^pm$ decays are presented where the $D$ meson is reconstructed in the final states $K^pmpi^mp$, $pi^pm K^mp$, $K^+K^-$, $pi^+pi^-$, $K^pmpi^mp pi^+ pi^-$, $pi^pm K
^mp pi^+ pi^-$ and $pi^+ pi^- pi^+ pi^-$. This analysis uses a sample of charged $B$ mesons from $pp$ collisions collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011 and 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. Various CP-violating effects are reported and together these measurements provide important input for the determination of the unitarity triangle angle $gamma$. The analysis of the four-pion $D$ decay mode is the first of its kind.
A search for heavy Majorana neutrinos produced in the $B^- to pi^+mu^-mu^-$ decay mode is performed using 3 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector in $pp$ collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV at the LH
C. Neutrinos with masses in the range 250-5000 MeV and lifetimes from zero to 1000 ps are probed. In the absence of a signal, upper limits are set on the branching fraction ${cal{B}}(B^- to pi^+mu^-mu^-)$ as functions of neutrino mass and lifetime. These limits are on the order of $10^{-9}$ for short neutrino lifetimes of 1 ps or less. Limits are also set on the coupling between the muon and a possible fourth-generation neutrino.
Measurements of $CP$ observables in $B^{pm} rightarrow D K^{*pm}$ decays are presented, where $D$ denotes a superposition of $D^0$ and $overline{D^0}$ meson states. Decays of the $D$ meson to $K^{-}pi^{+}$, $K^{-}K^{+}$, $pi^{-}pi^{+}$, $K^{-}pi^{+}p
i^{-}pi^{+}$ and $pi^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{+}$ are used and the $K^{*pm}$ meson is reconstructed in the $K^{0}_{mathrm{S}}pi^{pm}$ final state. This analysis uses a data sample of $pp$ collisions collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 1 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, 2 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ and 1.8 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at centre-of-mass energies $sqrt{s} = $ 7 TeV, 8 TeV and 13 TeV, respectively. The sensitivity of the results to the CKM angle $gamma$ is discussed.
