B Physics in the Next MillenniumDOI: 10.1063/1.57785 Abstract: As we approach the turn of the century, the Standard Model is still consistent with all our experimental observations and the path to a more complete picture of the fundamental constituents and their interactions has yet to be clearly identified. Beauty flavored hadrons have provided crucial experimental information on several fundamental parameters of the Standard Model and may lead to one of the most challenging test of its validity and provide some clues on the path towards a more complete theory. Several experiments will try to explore this rich phenomenology in the next few years. Their physics goals and discovery potential will be compared.
