Heavy Quarks & Leptons
The LHCb experiment is designed to perform high-precision measurements of CP violation and search for New Physics using the enormous flux of beauty and charmed hadrons produced at the LHC. The operation and the results obtained from the data collected do far demonstrate that the detector is robust and functioning very well. We therefore plan for an upgraded spectrometer by 2018 with a 40 MHz...

The NOvA experiment, now nearing completion, is a new long-baseline neutrino experiment that will use an upgraded NuMI neutrino source at Fermilab and a 14-kton detector at Ash River, Minnesota. NOvA uses a highly active, finely segmented detector design that offers superb event identification capability, allowing precision measurements of electron (anti-)neutrino appearance and muon...

I will explain the physics prospects of the JUNO experiment with a special emphasis on the determination of the mass hierarchy. Then I want to present the detector concept along with the ongoing R&D and our schedule.

The Belle II experiment is a new generation B-factory experiment at
KEK in Japan. The construction of the SuperKEKB accelerator and the
Belle II detector is now in progress aiming at the commissioning in
2016. In the conference, the physics motivation of the experiment,
the search for New Physics in the enormous number of B meson and
other decays, is discussed in detail with a view of...
