High Energy Physics (HEP) is the area of Physics concerned with understanding the fundamental constituents of the universe and their properties. There are two HEP groups at Wayne State, one involved in the CLEO III experiment located at Cornell University, and the other involved in the HERA-B experiment at the DESY laboratory in Hamburg, Germany. Both experiments are designed primarily to study the production and decay of hadrons containing the b quark. Specific research topics of these experiments include:

• CP violation
• precision measurements of CKM matrix elements
• hadroproduction of c and b hadrons
• rare and forbidden decays of B hadrons
• B and D mixing
• B and D spectroscopy
