The Standard Model of Particle Physics (SM) has been confirmed by thousands of experimental measurements with a high precision. But the SM leaves important questions open, like what is the nature of dark matter or what is the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. By comparing high precision Standard Model calculations with extremely precise measurements, one can find the first glimpses of the physics beyond the SM – currently we see the first hints of a potential breakdown of the SM in flavour observables. This can then be compared with purely theoretical considerations about new physics models, known as model building. Both precision calculations and model building are extremely specialised fields and this outstanding thesis contributes significantly to both topics within the field of Flavour Physics and sheds new light on the observed anomalies. 000890539 588__ $$aOnline resource ; title from PDF title page (viewed May 22, 2019). 000890539 650_0 $$aParticles (Nuclear physics)$$xFlavor. 000890539 830_0 $$aSpringer theses. 000890539 852__ $$bebk 000890539 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-19197-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890539 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890539$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890539 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890539 980__ $$aBIB 000890539 982__ $$aEbook 000890539 983__ $$aOnline 000890539 994__ $$a92$$bISE
