The first period of the Tevatron Run II has been dominated by low-Pt physics. Both detectors, and their trigger/DAQ systems have been largely modified to exploit as much as possible the large wealth of charm and beauty hadrons produced by…
The DO detector at FNAL has undergone a significant upgrade for its present Run II data taking period, allowing for a broad B physics programme. This report focuses on studies performed on a sample of approximately 75 thousand inclusive…
This is a review of the SuperB project, covering the accelerator, detector, and highlights of the broad physics programme. SuperB is a flavour factory capable of performing precision measurements and searches for rare and forbidden decays…
Working in the hybrid high-energy/collinear factorization, where the next-to-leading resummation of energy logarithms is combined with collinear parton densities and fragmentation functions, we study observables sensitive to high-energy…
As we approach the turn of the century, the Standard Model is still consistent with all our experimental observations and the path to a more complete picture of the fundamental constituents and their interactions has yet to be clearly…
The LHCb experiment is designed for hadronic flavour physics and will look for New Physics manifestations in the decay of charm and bottom hadrons abundantly produced at the LHC. All parts of the LHCb physics programme can be embarked on…
The experimental talks presented in the working group D ``Heavy Flavours'' of the DIS04 workshop are summarised. New and recently updated results from Tevatron, HERA, LEP, B-factories and neutrino experiments are discussed.
Run 2 of the Tevatron collider at Fermilab has begun in the spring of 2001. During its first year of operation the Tevatron has delivered a luminosity of approximately 30/pb to the Dzero experiment. These data have been used to commission…
Top quark mass measurements from the Tevatron using up to \invfb{2.0} of data are presented. Prospects for combined Tevatron measurements by the end of Run II are discussed.

In recent years the precision of lattice calculations has improved hugely, and the results are making a very significant impact in particle physics phenomenology. Indeed there is no alternative general method which can be used in the…
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will open a new era in high energy physics. The expected large cross section for heavy flavour production in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 14 TeV will allow detailed studies of the production…
The formation of hadrons is a fundamental process in nature that can be investigated at particle colliders. Given their large mass, heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are produced only in initial hard-scatterings, prior to hadronisation, which…
The study of the dynamics of strong interactions in the high-energy regime is a core line of frontier researches at the LHC as well as at new-generation colliding facilities. Here, the enhancement of energy logarithms due to diffractive…
Several supersymmetric models with extended gauge structures, motivated by either grand unification or by neutrino mass generation, predict light doubly-charged Higgsinos. In this work we study the signals of doubly-charged Higgsinos at the…
