What Next in Flavour Physics and CP Violation?

Abstract

The future of flavour physics and CP violation in the quark, lepton and Higgs sectors are discussed, particularly from the viewpoint of physics beyond the Standard Model, such as supersymmetry. Current issues in B to pi^+ pi^-, phi K_s and D^*+ D^*-, B_s physics and rare B decays are reviewed. The prospects for seeing flavour and CP violation in the charged-lepton sector are discussed, using the minimal supersymmetric seesaw model as a guide. Finally, the possible consequences of CP violation in the Higgs sector are mentioned.
