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 …

Precision measurements of the violation of charge-parity (CP) symmetry are crucial for testing the Standard Model and are sensitive probes for new physics contributions. While CP violation has been well-established by several different experiments in the decays of mesons containing …

ABSTRACT: The hypothesis of the existence of non-baryonic dark matter in our galactic halo is supported by all astrophysical observations performed from cosmological to local scales. The measurement of one clear experimental signal of this matter represents one of the …

ABSTRACT: Measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropies and E-mode polarization have proven to be essential to our understanding of early universe cosmology by providing independent and strong evidence in favor of the Lambda-CDM cosmological model. However, there …
