Honorary Lectures - Profs Nakada, Bay et Shaposhnikov
"Making an experiment with b-quarks from A to Z"
Tatsuya Nakada
The b-quark is about five time heavier than the proton and the second heaviest quark. Unexpectedly from the large phase space available from its mass, it has a rather long lifetime of an order of 10-12 sec compared to other lighter quarks... Read more
"Comment realiser un détecteur de particules de précision"
Aurelio Bay
LHCb is one of the experiments which use the collisions of beams in one of the interaction regions of the LHC accelerator at CERN... Read more
"How many new particles still remain to be discovered?"
Mikhail Shaposhnikov
The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) and Einstein general relativity are extremely successful in describing almost all phenomena observed in Nature so far, spanning distances from a fraction of Fermi to thousands of megaparsecs... Read more
