Various aspects of physics at LEP 2 are reviewed from a phenomenological point of view. We first discuss the search for Higgs bosons, which might be relatively light if indications from the precision electroweak data and supersymmetry are…
I broadly summarize the theoretical contributions in the Electroweak session of the 2005 Moriond meeting under four rubrics: i) neutrinos; ii) cosmology; iii) electroweak interactions; and iv) flavor physics.
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…
Flavour physics plays a crucial role in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). While $B$ physics offers many observables to look for deviations from the SM, the highest new physics sensitivity can be obtained in the rare…
Motivated by the success of the flavour physics programme carried out over the last decade at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we characterize in detail the physics potential of its High-Luminosity and High-Energy upgrades in this domain of…
The purpose of these lectures is to provide the reader with an idea of how we can probe New Physics with quark flavour observables using effective theory techniques. After giving a concise review of the quark flavour structure of the…
CP violation in B decays provides a powerful tool to probe physics from beyond the Standard Model. A theoretical overview of recent developments of benchmark channels is given, ranging from non-leptonic to rare leptonic and semileptonic…
We review theoretical and experimental results on CP violation summarizing the discussions in the working group on CP violation at the UK phenomenology workshop 2000 in Durham.
This review presents flavour related issues in the production and decays of heavy states at LHC, both from the experimental side and from the theoretical side. We review top quark physics and discuss flavour aspects of several extensions of…
We present results of global fits of all relevant experimental data on rare $b \to s$ decays. We observe significant tensions between the Standard Model predictions and the data. After critically reviewing the possible sources of…
This writeup of a talk at the 2011 Lepton-Photon symposium in Mumbai, India, summarises recent results in the charged-lepton flavour sector. I review searches for charged-lepton flavour violation, lepton electric dipole moments and…
This contribution summarizes some of the important theoretical progress that has been made in the arena of electroweak physics at hadron colliders. The focus is on developments that have sharpened theoretical predictions for final states…
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…
In these lecture notes we review some prospect for the upcoming LHC experiments in view of the exploration of the Standard Model (SM) or its minimal Supersymmetric extension (MSSM). We focus on some theoretical aspects concerning the Higgs…
Ideas from quantum field theory and topology have proved remarkably fertile in suggesting new phenomena in the quantum physics of condensed matter. Here I'll supply some broad, unifying context, both conceptual and historical, for the…
The field of lepton flavor violation will live an era of unprecedented developments in the near future, with dedicated experiments in different fronts. The observation of a flavor violating process involving charged leptons would be a clear…
We present a short overview of recent work on the topic of flavour violation in the presence of a sequential fourth generation (4G) of quarks and leptons. We discuss the implications of this simple extension of the Standard Model (SM3) for…
This talk highlights, from a theoretical point of view, some recent exciting results in flavor physics, as well as future prospects. We discuss possible implications of a subset of the experimental results in tension with the standard…
This pedagogical overview will cover the current status of neutrino physics from an experimentalist's point of view, focusing primarily on oscillation studies. The evidence for neutrino oscillations will be presented, along with the…
This is a written version of a series of lectures aimed at graduate students in particle theory/string theory/particle experiment familiar with the basics of the Standard Model. We explain the many reasons for the interest in flavour…
