News in Flavour Physics from Experiments and from Lattice QCD
Guido Martinelli
Abstract
The recent
experimental measurements of Bs-Bsbar mixing and of
the branching ratio B -> tau nu_tau, together with the possibility of making unquenched
lattice simulations at low quark masses, and preserving chiral
properties, open new perspectives in flavour physics.
Several related subjects, as chiral properties of
hadrons, hyperon form factors and the status of the CKM matrix will also briefly reviewed.
