Flavour Physics and CP Violation

Abstract

These lectures provide a concise introduction to flavor physics, within and beyond the Standard Model, with main focus on B-physics phenomenology and some recent developments. The first lecture is an introduction to the flavor sector of the Standard Model. The second lecture is devoted to B-meson mixing and rare B decays. The last lecture contains a general discussion about flavor physics beyond the Standard Model, with a highlighting of recent developments related to the idea of flavor deconstruction.
