$B$ physics plays important roles in searching for the new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM). Recently, some deviations between experimental data and SM predictions were reported, namely $R(D^{(*)})$, $P_5^\prime$ and…
I give an introduction to the theory of meson-antimeson mixing, aiming at students who plan to work at a flavour physics experiment or intend to do associated theoretical studies. I derive the formulae for the time evolution of a neutral…

I review the status of global fits to the CKM matrix within the framework of the Standard Model and also allowing for New Physics contributions in B-Bbar mixing. The driving force is coming from the large data sets collected by the…
The study investigates flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC) decays of $B$ and $K$ mesons in the context of a dark $U(1)_D$ model with a dark photon/dark $Z$ mass between 10 MeV and 2 GeV. While the model improves the fit to certain decay…

Effective Supersymmetry is presented as a theory of physics above the electroweak scale which has significant theoretical advantages over both the standard model and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The theory is…
Heavy flavor physics entered a new era when the Belle II experiment observed its first collision. There are several hints found so far by BaBar, Belle, and LHCb in particular, that suggest the physics beyond the Standard Model appearing in…
Motivated by the recent hints of lepton flavour non-universality in $B$-meson semi-leptonic decays, we study the constraints of perturbative unitarity on the new physics interpretation of the anomalies in $b \to c \ell \bar \nu$ and $b \to…
The possibility of using charm meson physics to test the Standard Model (SM) is reviewed. In the case of $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing, the SM contributions are carefully considered and the existence of a window for the observation of new physics…
Recent heavy flavour results from the LEP experiments are presented. These include a search for new physics in rare B decays, a new model-independent measurement of the b-quark fragmentation function at the Z peak, updated measurements of…
The potential of a Super Flavor Factory (SFF) for searches of New Physics is reviewed. While very high luminosity B physics is assumed to be at the core of the program, its scope for extensive charm and tau studies are also emphasized. The…
Early B-physics experiments have left us with a number of puzzles in heavy flavour physics. New lattice calculations (with a greater understanding of QCD effects in the Standard Model) will be needed to support the increase in experimental…
An extension of the New Standard Model, by introducing a mixing of the low mass ``active'' neutrinos with heavy ones, or by any model with lepton flavor violation, is considered. This leads to non-orthogonal neutrino production and…

We discuss the B-physics signature of a supersymmetric U(2) flavor model in which the third generation scalars are relatively light (electroweak scale masses). We impose current experimental constraints on such a framework and obtain…
We discuss the opportunities for experiments at the frontier of physics using K-meson beams after the current round of precision experiments looking for CP violation in the K meson decay amplitude and for flavor-changing neutral currents…
The study of CP violation in $B$-meson decays has already reached a high level of precision, which will be pushed even higher in the future era of Belle-II and the LHCb upgrade. %Important probes of CP violation are the $B_d^0$ and $B_s^0$…

We emphasize the power of correlations between flavour observables in the search for New Physics and identify a number of correlations that could allow to discover New Physics even if it would appear at the level of 20% of the Standard…
