In this talk I want to convey an idea about the perspectives for precise lattice QCD computations. Some emphasis is put on the field of flavour physics, where lattice QCD seems to be needed the most in the quantitative interpretation of…
Flavour physics plays a central role in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model, posing fundamental questions whose answers may point to new physics scales far above the electroweak scale. The flavour structure of the Standard…
