ATLAS B-physics – an overview

The current scope and status of projected B-physics studies with the ATLAS detector are presented. With the early low-luminosity running, high-statistics studies of various B-decay channels will allow measurements of the unitarity–triangle angles α and β and searches for deviations from the Standard Model. ATLAS will also perform measurements of Bs oscillations and of the Bs and Λb production and decay properties. ATLAS will be able to access rare B-decays using high- and low-luminosity running.
