Lepton Photon 2001 Concluding Remarks

Abstract

Important new results have been presented at this conference. The direct violation of CP in $K^0\to \pi +\pi$ has been firmly established in two independent experiments, NA48 at CERN and KTeV at Fermilab. Both Babar at SLAC and Belle at KeK have determined the CP violation in $B_d^0-{\bar{B}}_d^0$ oscillations through the study of the golden $K_S+\Psi$ decay mode. The observed CP violation agrees with the expectations of the Standard model, based on the quark-mixing phenomenon. The first results of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, SNO, suggest that the long-lasting solar neutrino puzzle has been finally solved in terms of neutrino oscillations. Results appeared after the conference which modify the theoretical prediction of the muon anomaly. This new result, if confirmed, would drastically reduce the significance of the discrepancy between the theoretically expected value for the muon anomaly and the recent results of the Brookhaven experiment.
