We discuss possibilities of detecting neutral and charged long-lived particles with the upgraded D0 detector in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron accelerator, using photon pointing, dE/dx, and time-of-flight techniques. Such particles appear…
The CDF II detector has the capability of triggering on displaced tracks. Because of this ability, CDF II has accrued large samples of charmed meson decays to fully hadronic final states in 64 pb^-1 of ppbar collision data gathered at…
For a long time the significance of charm has been overlooked as an important component of the heavy flavour programme. In recent years the balance has been redressed, and charm studies are quite rightly receiving much more attention. This…
The interplay of flavour and collider physics is entering a new era with the start-up of the LHC. During the past few years rare B decays and in particular b -> s gamma transitions have been extensively used and provided exciting…

Oscillations in the B0_s - anti-B0_s system were studied in events selected from about 4.3 million hadronic Z^0 decays registered by DELPHI between 1992 and 2000. This paper presents updates of two published analyses ([11,12]). The first…
A measurement of the number of $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector in 2009 and 2012 is performed using inclusive decays of the $J/\psi$ . The number of $J/\psi$ events taken in 2009 is recalculated to be $(223.7\pm1.4)\times…
Recent results on heavy flavor physics using data from the ATLAS and CMS detectors are presented. The searches for new physics signatures in CP violation of B0_s - anti(B0_s) mixing and in B0_d --> K*0 mu+ mu- decays are discussed. The…
We review latest experimental results on the Bs mixing and lifetime difference measurements at CDF. We report on the latest beta_s and dGamma_s results from Bs->J/psi phi. We also discuss flavor specific dGamma_s measurements, including…
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…
Lifetime and oscillations of B0s mesons have been studied in events with a large transverse momentum lepton and a Ds of opposite electric charge in the same hemisphere, selected from about 3.6 million hadronic Z0 decays accumulated by…
We present a brief overview of the first flavour physics results at the LHC. Cross-section for charm and beauty production have been measured by several experiments and the first competitive results on D and B decays are presented.
FCNC processes are expected to offer us a deep insight into the physics at very short distance scales. We present a list of 20 goals in quark and lepton flavour physics that could be reached already in the next decade. This list includes…
We combine all the available experimental information on Bs mixing, including the very recent tagged analyses of Bs to J/Psi phi by the CDF and D0 collaborations. We find that the phase of the Bs mixing amplitude deviates more than 3 sigma…
The goal of the KLOE-2 experiment operating at the upgraded DA{\Phi}NE e+e-collider is to collect an integrated luminosity of about 20 fb-1 during 3-4 years of running. Measurements using the KLOE-2 apparatus equipped with the inner…
In recent years there has been impressive progress in quark flavour physics, with current efforts tackling complicated quantities such as for example inclusive decays, decays to QCD-unstable final states and radiative decays. At the same…
Using a dedicated data sample taken in 2018 on the $J/\psi$ peak, we perform a detailed study of the trigger efficiencies of the BESIII detector. The efficiencies are determined from three representative physics processes, namely…
