XI International Conference on Hyperons, Charm and Beauty Hadrons
The XI International Conference on Hyperons, Charm and Beauty Hadrons (BEACH 2014) will be hosted by the University of Birmingham (United Kingdom) on 21–26 July 2014. This conference continues the BEACH series, which began with a meeting in Strasbourg in 1995. The series now offers a biennial opportunity for both theorists and experimentalists from the high-energy physics community to discuss all aspects of flavour physics. Past edition each attracted more than 100 participants.The following topics exemplify the broad scope of the conference:
- Production and decays of strange, charm and beauty hadrons
- Symmetry violation in particle physics
- Physics beyond the Standard Model
- Quarkonium spectroscopy, production and decay
- Heavy quark effective theory, lattice QCD and non-relativistic QCD
- Hyperon physics
- Top quark physics
- Precision electroweak measurements
- Flavour physics in the neutrino sector
- Lepton flavour violation
- New experimental facilities and projects
