SuperKEKB, a 7 GeV electron - 4 GeV positron double-ring collider, is constructed by upgrading KEKB in order to seek new physics beyond the Standard Model. The design luminosity of SuperKEKB is 8 x 10^35 /cm^2 /s - 40 times higher than that…
Extensions of the Standard Model may have significant effects on B physics observables. Two examples of methods that may find such effects are reviewed: Resolving discrete ambiguities in CP asymmetries and detecting right handed currents in…
The Standard Model of Particle Physics has been verified to unprecedented precision in the last few decades. However there are still phenomena in nature which cannot be explained, and as such new theories will be required. Since terrestrial…
LHCb is one of the four experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (CERN), dedicated to the study of b-hadrons. Throughout my research, I studied in particular b-baryons which are abundantly produced at the LHCb. My habilitation summarises…
