Abstract
The study of B-mesons provides information on the fundamental parameters of the standard model, namely the masses of the b quark and the t quark, m b and m t , and two of the three angles, namely β and γ, which together with the phase δ′ describe the Kobayashi-Maskawa-matrix. These angles can in principle be determined by three precise measurements of
-
the b-lifetime which yields γ
-
the rate of b → u transitions which yields β
-
B0B̄0 mixing which yields δ′.
