Absolute normalisation of the LHC measurements with a precision of O(1%) is desirable but beyond the reach of the present LHC detectors. This series of papers proposes and evaluates a measurement method capable to achieve such a precision…
The Upgrade II of the LHCb detector, foreseen for 2031, will operate at an instantaneous luminosity of 1.5 x 10$^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$, accumulating a sample of more than 300 fb$^{-1}$. To cope with the estimated pile-up of 42 and 200…

High Luminosity upgrades of the KEK-B collider are being discussed. We consider the role of the purely leptonic decays B^\pm -> l^\pm nu and B^0 -> l+l- in motivating such an upgrade. These decays are very sensitive to R parity violating…
The LHC detectors are well into their construction phase. The LHC schedule shows first beam to ATLAS and CMS in 2007. Because the LHC accelerator has begun to plan for a ten fold increase in LHC design luminosity (the SLHC or super LHC) it…
One of the main goals of the LHCb experiment is to determine the mixing-induced $CP$ violating phase $\phi_s$ in $b \rightarrow c\bar{c}s$ transitions. Assuming the Standard Model, $\phi_s$ is precisely predicted, hence new physics could…
