In the first part of these lectures the neutrino mixing hypothesis will be considered in detail. We will discuss the possible schemes of neutrino mixing and present the data of the recent experiments searching for effects due to…
This report is the result of the collaboration and research effort of the Quarkonium Working Group over the last three years. It provides a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in heavy-quarkonium theory and experiment, covering…
We review the progress on the determination of the CKM matrix elements |V_cs|, |V_cd|, |V_cb|, |V_ub| and heavy quark masses presented at the 6th International Workshop on the CKM Unitarity Triangle.
Deviations from unitarity of the CKM matrix in the quark sector are considered excellent windows to probe physics beyond the Standard Model. In its leptonic counterpart, the PMNS matrix, these searches are particularly motivated, as the new…
Neutrino physics is now poised to move into the precision regime. Active attempts are under way to commence the era of precision neutrino measurement science which will surely widen the horizon of our knowledge about neutrinos. A number of…
Heavy quarkonium theory has seen significant progress over the past years. Not only has the community steadily improved the understanding of fully equilibrated quarkonium using first principles lattice QCD studies, but it has taken major…
Quantum Hadrodynamics provides a useful framework for investigating dense matter, yet it breaks down easily when strangeness carrying baryons are introduced into the calculations, as the baryon effective masses become negative due to large…
Implications of the recent results on neutrino masses and mixing to underlying new physics are considered. Various approaches to physics behind neutrino mass are described which include the tri-bimaximal mixing and flavor symmetries, the…
In recent years, there have been significant developments in heavy quarkonium production, both in theory and in experiment. These developments may have important implications for the use of charmonium as a probe in heavy-ion collisions. A…
We present some recent developments on model building for neutrino masses and mixings. In particular, we review tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing derived from discrete groups, notably A4. We discuss the problems encountered with extending the…
The status of top quark searches will be briefly reviewed. Theoretical predictions for the top quark decay rate are presented including QCD and electroweak radiative corrections. The possibilities for quarkonium searches at an hadron…
I review the status of the top quark, and look forward to three topics relevant to future top-quark physics; spin correlation, single-top-quark production, and unification.
We consider a model in which dark matter is stable as it is charged under a Z2 symmetry that is residual after an A4 flavour symmetry is broken. We consider the possibility to generate the quark masses by charging the quarks appropriately…
The methods used in the evaluation of the neutrino-nucleus cross section are reviewed. Results are shown for a variety of targets of practical importance. Many of the described reactions are accessible in future experiments with neutrino…
This conference covers an extremely broad range of topics and in just a few pages it is impossible to even touch on all the areas which will be discussed. We have chosen to summarise just one area where there has recently been impressive…
The aim of high energy nuclear collisions is to study the transition from hadronic matter to a plasma of deconfined quarks and gluons. I review the basic questions of this search and summarize recent theoretical developments in the field.
In this talk I review our present knowledge on neutrino masses and mixing as well as the expectations from near future experiments.
The prospects for the coming Golden Age of heavy-flavour physics are discussed from the perspective of one who hopes it may provide a window onto physics beyond the Standard Model. Precise QCD calculations are necessary for accurate…
The possibility of additional quarks and leptons beyond the three generations already established is discussed. The make-up of this Report is (I) Introduction: the motivations for believing that the present litany of elementary fermions is…
Highlights of the results from ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at CERN-SPS are reviewed. In particular, I discuss how the experimental results indicate that a collective strongly interacting system has been produced, and what are the…
