2020 Belle II Physics Week

30 Nov 2020, 08:30 → 4 Dec 2020, 19:00 Europe/Berlin

The 2020 Belle II Physics Week will be an online event open to theorists and experimentalists  (from Belle II and other experiments).

The main goals of the event are:

• continue the B2TiP effort, discussing with experts what are the most important physics observables and what the community expects from Belle II;
• cover in depth specific topics relevant to the Belle II physics program;
• train young Belle II members on advanced analysis techniques;

 

This year's topic is Belle II first publications and amplitude analyses.

 

Confirmed lecturers:

• Tim Gershon (University of Warwick)
• Christoph Hanhart (Forschungszentrum Juelich)
• Emilie Passemar (Indiana University)
• Jonas Rademacker (University of Bristol)
• Markus Roehrken (DESY)
• Keri Vos (TU Munchen)

 

We will discuss the following upcoming Belle II papers:

• Inclusive Vcb with hadronic mass moments;
• Tau mass measurement;
• (Belle + Belle II) phi_3;
• Dark Higgsstrahlung;
• Search for B+ -> K+ nu nubar.

 

As in the previous editions, participants will have the possibility to give a short (~10 minutes) presentation about their work (any topic, not necessarily connected to the theme of the Physics Week). If you would like to give such presentation, please submit a short abstract.

 

Organizers/Conveners: Florian Bernlochner, Alessandro Gaz, Kenji Inami, Emi Kou, Jim Libby, Armine Rostomyan.
