We review some of the recent developments in QCD spin physics and highlight the spin program now underway at RHIC.
We review the present status of rare B decays, focusing on inclusive decay modes and their role in our search for new physics. We also briefly discuss direct CP violation in rare B decays and the rare kaon decays $K^+\to \pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$…
We review recent important progresses at the B factories and discuss the future prospects. We also comment on how we might proceed to search for new physics.
A review is presented of the current status of experimental searches for physics beyond the standard model in rare $\tau$ decays.
Laymen and sometimes even physicists think of natural sciences, in particular of theoretical and mathematical physics often as subjects, which unfold according to an intrinsic logical pattern, with the limitations being set only by the…
I will summarize the numerous contributions which were presented in the session, Hadronic and Spin Physics, largely dominated by new experimental results.
We review some recent theoretical results on radiative rare kaon decays. Particular attention is devoted to the channels $K\to \pi l\bar{% l}$ and $K\to \pi \pi \gamma$, where we are (or might be) able to extract the short distance…
Quark flavour physics is the study of hadrons, their properties, and their decays into other particles. As a discipline it simultaneously catalogues the nature of physical states within the Standard Model of particle physics, and in doing…
The current status of axion physics is presented. There still exists the axion window 10^9 GeV < F_a < 10^{12} GeV. The recent CAST solar axion search experiment on the axion-photon-photon coupling strength has to be improved by a factor of…
An updated review is presented of lattice investigations of colour confinement.
Extensions of nuclear physics to the strange sector are reviewed, covering data and models of Lambda and other hypernuclei, multi-strange matter, and anti-kaon bound states and condensation. Past achievements are highlighted, present…
The experimental observations that led to the quark structure of matter and the development of hadron physics are reviewed with emphasis on the discoveries of mesons and baryons, starting in the 1940s with the pion and kaon which mediate…
In this talk, I address some open problems in hadron physics and stress their importance for a better understanding of QCD in the confinement regime.
We present a concise review of where we stand in particle physics today. First we discuss QCD, then the electroweak sector and finally the motivations and the avenues for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
We review the physics of the ultraviolet renormalon. This mini-review is intended to be a sequel to the review by the same authors at the "QCD '96" conference last year (hep-ph/9610492).
A brief review of the latest developments in the spectroscopy of heavy quarks is presented. The current status of the recently `discovered' pentaquarks is also discussed.
The necessity of the FORM project is discussed. Then the evolutionary needs in particle physics are considered, looking at the trends over the years. A guess is made at what will be needed in the (near) future. The whole is concluded with…
Experiments using slow neutrons address a growing range of scientific issues spanning nuclear physics, particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. The field of fundamental physics using neutrons has experienced a significant increase in…
In this editorial guide for the special issue on econophysics, we give a unique review of this young but quickly growing discipline. A suggestive taxonomy of the development is proposed by making a distinction between classical econophysics…
Recent lattice studies on (semi-)leptonic kaon decays towards a precise determination of V_us are reviewed. Attention is given to recent unquenched calculations and consistency of their results with chiral perturbation theory.
