CKM global fit and constraints on New Physics in the B meson mixing

Abstract

An update profile of the CKM matrix is given, providing numerical and graphical constraints on the CKM parameters in the Standard Model. Constraints on additional parameters accounting for possible new physics contribution in a model-independent analysis are also reported with emphasis on the leptonic decay of the Bd and on the Bs mixing phase.
