Description
We present the update of the Unitarity Triangle (UT) analysis within the Standard Model (SM)
and beyond. Within the SM, combining the direct measurements on sides and angles, the UT
turns out to be overconstraint in a consistent way, showing that the CKM matrix is the dominant
source of flavour mixing and CP-violation and that New Physics (NP) effects can appear at most
as small corrections to the CKM picture. Generalizing the UT analysis to investigate NP effects,
constraints on b -> s transitions are also included and both CKM and NP parameters are fitted
simultaneously. While no evidence of NP effects is found in K- \bar K and Bd-\bar Bd mixing, in the
Bs- \bar Bs mixing an hint of NP is found. The UT analysis beyond the SM also
allows us to derive bounds on the coefficients of the most general DeltaF = 2 effective Hamiltonian,
that can be translated into bounds on the NP scale.
