Description

Precision measurements of flavour observables can provide powerful tests of many extensions of the Standard Model. I will present a review of recent heavy flavour results, focussing on places where tensions have started to appear between experimental measurements and Standard Model predictions. The talk will discuss possible explanations for these tensions and highlight areas where theoretical progress (in QCD) is needed to keep pace with increasing experimental precision.
