Color-Meets-Flavor Bad Honnef Physics School

Scientific organizers: Prof. Johannes Albrecht (TU Dortmund University), Prof. Florian Bernlochner (Bonn University), Prof. Alexander Lenz (Siegen University)

Physikzentrum Bad Honnef, Germany

Quark flavor physics studies the transitions of quarks via the weak interaction. Since quarks carry a color charge they do not exist as free particles, but are bound into colorless hadrons. Thus for a clear identification of the fundamental quark transitions a control of the hadronic effects is indispensable - color meets flavor.

Review lectures will provide a broad overview over current highlights of the field, accompanied by hands-on sessions on detector development and deep learning based data analysis as well as inspiring evening lectures.
