Selected Topics in Heavy Flavour Physics

Abstract

We review the status of flavour physics in spring 2014. The numerous accurate new measurements of flavour experiments have enabled us to test our theoretical understanding of flavour processes with an unprecedented precision. At first sight the dominant amount of measurements seems to be standard model like. Having a closer look one finds, however, that in most of the observables there is still some considerable space for new effects. In addition many discrepancies are still not settled yet. For further investigations and definite conclusions an improvement of the theoretical precision as well as the experimental one is mandatory.
