Flavour Physics Graduate Lectures

These lectures are delivered as part of the graduate lecture series in High Energy Physics at Cambridge. They have also been delivered as part of the Warwick Week in Particle Physics (2019-2023)
Before 2025 the content was arranged into 4 x 1.5 hour lectures. For 2025 the content was split between experimental and theoretical into 5 lectures. The 2024 version can be found here.
