Following in the footsteps of Belle at the KEKB facility, a new super-B factory will search for new weak interactions in the flavour sector.
Read article 'ATLAS clocks rare decay of B mesons into muon pairs'
The decays of the B0s and B0 into muon pairs represent an important test of the Standard Model. Such decays take place through a flavour-changing neutral current process, which occurs only through loo...
Read article 'LHCb updates Bs oscillation measurement'
The LHCb experiment has recently made the most precise measurement yet of the asymmetry in oscillations between the matter and antimatter versions of Bs mesons. The measurement exploits the full LHCb ...
