Pentaquarks and Possible Anomalies at LHCb

With the LHC Run 1 data, the LHCb experiment discovered two pentaquark states and has evidence for a number of possible anomalies in the avour sector. The possible anomalies include indications of violations of lepton avour universality, deviations from Standard Model predictions in several B-meson decay modes that are mediated by avour-changing neutral currents, and further evidence for a discrepancy between inclusive and exclusive measurements of the CKM matrix element |V_ub|.
