Description
The Belle II experiment, being constructed at the KEK laboratory in
Japan, is a substantial upgrade of both the Belle detector and the
KEKB accelerator. The Belle II experiment aims to record 50 ab$^{-1}$
of data, a factor of 50 more than the Belle experiment. This large
data set will be accumulated with low backgrounds and high trigger
efficiencies in a clean e+ e- environment and will provide
unprecedented sensitivity to new physics signatures in $B$ and $D$
meson decays as well as $\tau$ lepton decays.
This talk will review the physics capabilities of this experiment.
