The flavour sector is an excellent place to perform precision measurements and to challenge Standard Model predictions. One text-book example of a potential discovery of new physics in precison probes of the flavor sector are the so-called flavor anomalies.
They emerge in the study of b -> all transitions and cause currently quite some excitement.
We will give a detailed introduction to the quark and charged lepton sector of the Standard Model.
We will discuss past and future key measurements and experiments in the flavour physics and their experimental and theoretical challenges.
These lectures do require master-level knowledge on particle physics, but no specific knowledge in flavour physics is required.
