相关论文: Unitarity Triangle: 2002 and Beyond
Unitarity is a fundamental property of any theory required to ensure we work in a theoretically consistent framework. In comparison with the quark sector, experimental tests of unitarity for the 3x3 neutrino mixing matrix are considerably…
I briefly review the conceptual developments that led to the Standard Model and discuss some of its remarkable qualitative features. On the way, I draw attention to several puzzling aspects that are beyond the reach of our present…
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…
We present an update of the Unitarity Triangle (UT) analysis, within the Standard Model (SM) and beyond. Within the SM the main novelties are the inclusion in epsilon_K of the contributions of xi and phi_epsilon \neq \pi/4 pointed out by…
We first review some aspects of the determination of the sides and angles of the unitarity triangle. We pay particular attention to theory shortcomings, and present many alternative proposals for the determination of |Vub| (which at present…
After reviewing the present experimental constraints on the unitarity triangle, I discuss the various ways in which new physics can manifest itself in measurements of the parameters of the unitarity triangle. Apart from one exception, which…
The possible role of precision flavour physics, and particularly of B physics, in the next decade is briefly discussed. Few 2--3$\sigma$ deviations from the Standard Model found in present $B$ data are reviewed as potential forerunners of…
I briefly summarize the prospects for extending our understanding of physics beyond the standard model within the next five years.
We review the status of the flavour-changing neutral-current processes (FCNC). In particular we discuss: i) Main targets of the field, ii) The theoretical framework for FCNC, iii) Standard analysis of the unitarity triangle, iv)…
As we approach the turn of the century, the Standard Model is still consistent with all our experimental observations and the path to a more complete picture of the fundamental constituents and their interactions has yet to be clearly…
This letter summarises the status of the global fit of the CKM parameters within the Standard Model performed by the CKMfitter group. Special attention is paid to the inputs for the CKM angles $\alpha$ and $\gamma$ and the status of…
Within the Standard Model, a review of the current determination of the CKM unitarity triangle parameters is presented, using experimental constraints from the measurements of |epsilon_K|, V_ub/V_cb, Delta m_d and from the limit on Delta…
We review the recent highlights of theoretical flavour physics, based on the theory summary talk given at FPCP2017. Over the past years, a number of intriguing anomalies have emerged in flavour violating $K$ and $B$ meson decays,…
Flavour physics plays a central role in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model, posing fundamental questions whose answers may point to new physics scales far above the electroweak scale. The flavour structure of the Standard…
In most of the proposals for new physics beyond the standard model, neutrinos have new interactions and some of them have phenomenological consequences that, although at present they may seem purely academic, probably will have to be taken…
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…
I present a brief overview of some exciting possibilities for physics Beyond the Standard Model. I include short discussions of neutrino physics, the strong CP problem and axions, GUTs, large and warped extra dimensions, Little Higgs models…
We review the status of flavour physics in spring 2014. The numerous accurate new measurements of flavour experiments have enabled us to test our theoretical understanding of flavour processes with an unprecedented precision. At first sight…
This talk reviews some of the theoretical progress and outstanding issues in QCD, flavour physics, Higgs and electroweak physics and the search for physics beyond the Standard Model at the Tevatron and the LHC, and previews some physics…
A review is given of recent developments in the physics of flavor. Current constraints on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix are discussed and related to the recent measurements of epsilon'/epsilon, sin(2beta) and K+ -> pi+ nu nubar. A…
