  2. Seeking new physics through quark flavor Current Status of CP Violation, Rare Decays & Heavy Flavour Physics: D.MacFarlane • Precision measurements of SM parameters • Quark flavor measurements have established a consistent picture of the weak interaction sector of the SM • Consistency & increasing precision for CKM parameters offers opportunities for discovering new physics • CP violation and CP violating phases • Interference of amplitudes required for CP inherently sensitive to introduction of new phases • Rare decays • Processes with new BSM amplitudes, phases and helicity properties will produce final states with different BR, angular distributions, and phases • There are many examples of SM-suppressed FCNC transitions where new physics effects can be large
