Determination of the Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix

TL;DRAbstract

The Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix, which delineates what combinations of quark fields are operative in the charge changing weak interaction, was introduced in Chapter 9. Its elements Vij have occurred repeatedly in the preceding chapters and are crucial in providing quantitative results from the theory. We here address the issue of measuring these matrix elements and of summarizing the present knowledge of them.
