Working Group on the Interplay between Collider and Flavour Physics

The working group addresses the complementarity and synergy between the LHC and the flavour factories within the new physics search. New collaborations on this topic were triggered by the two recent CERN workshop series Flavour in the Era of the LHC and CP Studies and Non-Standard Higgs Physics at the borderline of collider and flavour physics and experiment and theory. This follow-up working group shall provide a continuous framework for such collaborations and trigger new research work in this direction. Regular meetings at CERN (well-connected by VRVS) are planned in the near future.
