Physikalisches Institut, Universität Heidelberg
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) close to Geneva holds many records. Amongst others, it is the world largest flavour factory. More than 10^12 particles containing bottom quarks and even more containing charm quarks have been recorded by the LHCb experiment, in recent years. Exploiting these huge data-sets the LHCb experiment is an ideal laboratory to probe the Standard Model in precision measurements. The talk will give an introduction to the key ideas of quark flavour physics, present a selected overview of recent physics highlights and report briefly on the status of the commissioning of the upgraded LHCb experiment.
Date: Tuesday, 28 March 16:15
Location: Lecture Hall 05.01, Institute of Physics, University of Graz, Universitätsplatz 5
Host: Sarah Lindner
The opening of the lecture as well as the discussion with the speaker directly after the talk will be moderated by Sarah Lindner, Karl-Franzens University Graz.
Looking forward to your participation!
