Flavour Physics and Beyond
With the successful start of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN
quark flavour physics has entered a new era. Unprecedented samples of
Beauty and charmed mesons and baryons have been collected
by the LHCb experiment, which was built for this purpose,
ATLAS and CMS also have large flavour physics
data samples and the Tevatron and B-factory experiments
continue to produce interesting...

Flavour Physics and Beyond
Observation of charged lepton flavour violation (CLFV) would provide a clear signal for physics beyond the Standard Model. Selected recent experimental results and near-term prospects for the searches for CLFV processes are discussed. The processes considered include μ→e conversion, μ→eγ decay and lepton flavour violating decays of the charged kaons.

Flavour Physics and Beyond
Measurement of a non-zero permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) would be clear evidence of a new source of CP violation outside of the quark mixing CKM matrix, and would be a possible signature of Supersymmetry. I will give an overview of current EDM experiments, including searches for atomic EDMs, recent improvements on the electron EDM upper bound measured in polar molecules, and the...
