Description
Belle~II is a flavor physics experiment at the asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider SuperKEKB in Japan. It aims to record an order of magnitude more data than is predecessor Belle experiment. Belle~II started operation in 2019 and to date has accumulated $\sim$430 $fb^{-1}$ of data. The Uppsala University recently joined the experiment, becoming the first Scandinavian country in a collaboration that boasts more than 25 collaborating countries and 120 institutions. In this talk we will present the status and plans of the Belle~II experiment, giving an overview of the physics that can be studied and covering few of its recent results.
