This talk gives a theoretical perspective of the physics issues awaiting us when heavy ions will collide in the LHC.
LHCb, bolstered up by the 10^12 b-hadrons produced yearly, is an excellent place to study rare B decays. The B_s to mu^+ mu^- decay, generated by flavour-changing neutral current, is strongly suppressed within the Standard Model (SM).…
