Abstract

The B system represents an ideal framework for a phenomenological study of the CKM matrix, the validation of its unitarity and independent tests of the CP violation description in the Standard Model (SM). In particular rare B decays are among the cleanest probes of the flavour sector of the SM available to present experiments and can reveal the existence of new physics (NP).
