Super Flavour Factories: SuperB
Adrian Bevan (Queen Mary, University of London)
Seminar Room 3, 15:00
The Standard Model of particle physics is the pinnacle of achievements
of science. In one simple model we can describe the behaviour of all
known particles extremely well. However we know that there are missing
pieces to this puzzle. We can use SuperB to learn about the missing pieces
through a multi-prong approach: i) study rare decays, ii) search forbidden
decays, and iii) over-constrain measurements of Standard Model sensitive
observables to see if they all agree. I will discuss just a few of the many
measurements that can be made at SuperB and how these can be used
to improve our understanding of particle physics. Having motivated the
reasons for a new experiment, I will discuss some of the aspects of such a
proposed facility.
