Abstract: There have now been several generations of wide-field mm-wave surveys, with several ongoing and upcoming very ambitious projects. We have already learned a great deal about the early universe and put strong constraints on particle physics extensions to the …

ABSTRACT: The LHCb experiment has just discovered new narrow pentaquark states decaying to J/psi p, which shed more light into the nature of the J/psi p structures reported by LHCb in Lambda_b decays four years ago. We will describe these …

Abstract: “Recent measurements of observables involving the flavour changing neutral current transition b→sμ+μ− have shown an interesting pattern of tensions with respect to the predictions of the Standard Model (SM). However, the interpretation of these results is limited by our …
