报告摘要：

The 21st century has been both an age of discovery, and an era of ever-increasing precision in quark-flavour physics.  Focusing on charm and beauty, I shall trace the history of selected key topics, reviewing the enormous progress that has been made over this period and speculating on what the future may hold.   I will argue that precise measurements of flavour observables may be our best hope for glimpsing the physics that lies beyond the Standard Model.

报告人简介：

Guy Wilkinson FRS is a professor of physics at the University of Oxford, UK.  At CERN he has worked on both LEP and the LHC, performing measurements in the electroweak and flavour sectors. He was a founding member of the LHCb experiment, which he led as Spokesperson during 2014-17.  He has also worked on the CLEO-c experiment in the USA and is a current member of the BESIII collaboration.  In 2017 he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society, largely in recognition for his studies in flavour.
