The 6th LHCb Frontier Physics Symposium was held in Guangzhou from May 22 to 25. Co-sponsored by all institutional partners of the LHCb China Consortium and hosted by the Institute of Quantum Matter of SCNU, this high-level academic conference focused on heavy-flavor physics in China. More than 100 experts and scholars from domestic universities and research institutes took part in discussions on cutting-edge research topics including heavy flavor physics, charge-parity violation, and tests of lepton universality.

On May 23, the symposium’s opening ceremony was held. Professor Wang Enke, Director of the Institute of Quantum Matter of SCNU, delivered a welcoming address. Academician Gao Yuanning, director of the State Key Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and Technology, spokesperson of the LHCb China Team and Professor at Peking University, gave the opening speech.
The symposium featured thematic sessions covering key research areas such as CP violation and precise measurements of the CKM matrix, decay processes of baryons and mesons, and studies of exotic hadron states. Experts and scholars from universities and research institutions presented academic reports, jointly exploring scientific challenges in the coordinated theoretical and experimental development of LHCb physics.
Participants also attended academic exchange sessions at the University Town campus of SCNU. They visited the laboratories of the Institute of Quantum Matter and the Southern Nuclear Science Computing Center, spoke highly of the institute’s research achievements, and held discussions on future collaboration.
