Experimental particle physics

Flavor physics and the weak interaction physics of heavy quarks and leptons:

• neutrino oscillations
• quark flavor mixing
• CP violation in quark and neutrino sectors
• tau lepton physics
• tests of quark and lepton universality

Strong interaction physics of hadrons:

• spectroscopy and dynamics of light and heavy mesons

Searches for non-Standard Model physics via rare processes.
