Indirect signs of new physics beyond the Standard Model may be appearing in $B \to K^{(*)}\mu^+\mu^-$ decays. If confirmed, the title question will be of paramount importance in determining the strategy for future colliders. We answer it by…
Recent measurements of CP violating asymmetries have led to a significant progress in our understanding of CP violation. The implications of the experimental results for the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism and for new physics are explained.
We discuss the sensitivity of the CP violating measurements at the upcoming B factories to the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model. We review the three manifestations of CP violation possible in the B meson system. We give…
Kaon physics observables are highly sensitive to New Physics (NP) effects and form in combination with the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) a powerful tool to study physics that goes beyond the Standard Model paradigm. We…
Rare decays were essential in the discovery of the CKM mechanism of flavour and CP violation and are highly sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this summary the current status and future prospects of experimental…
A review of the current status of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix V_CKM is presented. This paper contains an update of the results published in hep-ph/9711261. Values of the parameters entering into the constraints, which restrict the…
In these proceedings I present a personal perspective of the challenges for new physics (NP) searches in the flavour sector. Since the CKM mechanism of flavour violation has been established to a very high precision, we know that physics…
The aim of the paper is to propose one paradigm change of CKM global fits on experimental data from electroweak sector. The change refers to using in fits the exact unitarity constraints expressed in terms of four invariant parameters, such…
In a large class of models, the only significant new physics effect on the CP asymmetries in $B \to \psi K_S$ and $B \to \pi\pi$ decays is a new contribution to the $B-\bar B$ mixing amplitude. This allows a model independent construction…
We present a model-independent parametrization of the $B^\pm\to J/\psi K^\pm$, $B_d\to J/\psi K_S$ decay amplitudes by taking into account the constraints that are implied by the isospin symmetry of strong interactions. Employing estimates…
The CKM matrix, V, relates the quark mass and flavor bases. In the standard model, V is unitary 3X3, and specified by four arbitrary parameters, including a phase allowing for $CP$ violation. We review the experimental determination of V,…
We present a reanalysis of the allowed region in the $\rho - \eta \,$ plane of the CKM matrix, which follows from our present knowledge of the theoretical and experimental parameters associated with quark mixing and CP violation. Besides…
These lectures give an introduction and the current status of flavour physics in the quark sector, with special attention to the CKM matrix and CP violation. We describe the measurements which contribute to the determination of the CKM…
We discuss the problem of theoretical uncertainties in the combination of observables related to the CKM matrix elements and propose a statistically sensible method for combining them. The overall fit is performed on present data, and…
We review new physics effects on CP violation in B decays. We describe the Standard Model predictions for the various types of CP asymmetries and discuss the theoretical cleanliness of these predictions. We point out the ingredients in the…
CKM theory has scored novel successes recently, namely vindication of weak universality and its first decisive test in CP studies. While this does not weaken the case for New Physics, one cannot count on the latter to induce large…
Using the most recent determinations of several theoretical and experimental parameters, we update the Unitarity Triangle analysis in the Standard Model. The basic experimental constraints come from the measurements of epsilon_k, Vub/Vcb…
The mixing of neutral mesons is sensitive to some of the highest scales probed in laboratory experiments. In light of the planned LHCb Upgrade II, a possible upgrade of Belle II, and the broad interest in flavor physics in the tera-$Z$…
In this summary we present the current status of the Standard Model of strong and electroweak interactions from the theoretical and experimental point of view. Some discussion is also devoted to the exploration of possible New Physics…
The currently favored model of CP violation is based on phases in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix describing the weak charge-changing couplings of quarks. The present status of parameters of this matrix is described. Tests of the…
