CP Violation: Experimental Results in B Decays

  • Conference paper
The Standard Model and Beyond

Part of the book series: Springer Proceedings in Physics ((SPPHY,volume 118))

In a School devoted to “High Energy Physics: the Standard Model and Beyond” the physics of flavour and the violation of discrete symmetries in fundamental interactions are relevant in more than one way. While testing the Standard Model (SM) predictions, experiments in this sector can both provide a window to the discovery of new physics, and improve the knowledge of key ingredients of our present understanding of the evolution of the universe.
