Dear friends,
Tomorrow (friday) we will have the (for now) last two candidates for a postdoc position visiting us and giving a seminar.
The first is Manuel Schiller at 10h30 in N328: "Track reconstruction and towards first LHCb results" Abstract: In his seminar Manuel will discuss trackfinding pattern recognition studies, the K_s analysis and work on the proper time resolution in B_s ---> D_s(K K pi) pi in 2009.
The second is Chris Thomas at 14h30 in H220: The title of my talk will be "Measurements of gamma using B->DK and the key role of charm physics inputs". The abstract is: "The CKM angle gamma is currently the least constrained of the angles of the b-d unitarity triangle. Analysis of B->DK decays is a very promising method to determine gamma more precisely. In this talk I present the current status of such analyses, including the prospects for a measurement of gamma at LHCb. I also outline the importance of external inputs from charm physics, in particular focusing on the measurement of the (D0,D0bar)->KShh strong phase difference at CLEO-c."
I realise that we had an intensive program with many talks and meetings, but your presence is highly appreciated at these seminars. So I hope to see you all there, best regards, - Marcel
