Particle-Antiparticle Asymmetry in the �� Meson System

Beschreibung

This book examines the asymmetry of charge-parity within weak interactions, particularly the B meson system, which is thought to be the cause of the dominance of matter over antimatter throughout the universe.

Autor

Hiroaki Aihara is professor at the University of Tokyo in the field of high-energy particle physics. He has a keen interest in physics involving heavy elementary particles, top quark, bottom quark and tau lepton. After working on the TOPAZ experiment at Tristan electron-positron collider at KEK and the D∅ experiment at Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab, he served as a co-leader of the Belle experiment at KEKB B factory. Belle made the first observation of particle-antiparticle symmetry in the B meson system in 2001 with the BaBar experiment at SLAC. Recently he has been working on the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment, the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB accelerator, and a dark energy survey with a new wide-field CCD camera mounted on Subaru telescope.
