Search for weakly interacting sub-eV particles with the OSQAR laser-based experiment: results and perspectives: Recent theoretical and experimental studies highlight the possibility of new fundamental particle physics beyond the Standard Model that can be probed by sub-eV energy experiments. The OSQAR photon regenera...

Results from the first heavy ion run at the LHC: Early November 2010, the LHC collided for the first time heavy ions, Pb on Pb, at a centre-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV/nucleon. This date marked both the end of almost 20 years of preparing for nuclear collisions at the LHC, as well as the start of a new era in ultra-rela...

Measurement of the Branching Fractions for Inclusive $B^-$ and $\bar B^0$ Decays to Flavor-tagged $D$, $D_s$ and $Λ_c$: We report on the inclusive branching fractions of $B^-$ and of ${\bar B}^0$ mesons decaying to ${D^0 X}$, ${{\bar D}^0 X}$, ${D^+ X}$, ${D^- X}$, ${D_s^+ X}$, ${D_s^- X}$, ${\Lambda_c^+ X}$, ${{\bar...

Analysis of Neutral Current Interactions in MINOS: A Search for Sterile Neutrinos: A search for disappearance of active neutrinos over a baseline of 735 km was conducted using the NuMI neutrino beam and the MINOS detectors. The data analyzed correspond to an exposure of 3.18x10^{20} protons on target. The data are fi...

Search for Dimuon Decays of a Light Scalar Boson in Radiative Transitions Upsilon -> gamma A0: We search for evidence of a light scalar boson in the radiative decays of the Upsilon(2S) and Upsilon(3S) resonances: Upsilon(2S,3S)-> gamma A0, A0 -> mu^+ mu^-. Such a particle appears in extensions of the Standard Model, ...

Status and Perspectives of Neutrino Physics: I will first give a brief but comprehensive review of the status of our knowledge in neutrino physics. With reference to a not too far future I will then discuss the perspectives that appear to me to be most important and promising.
