In the phenomenology of strong interactions most physical states acquire a substantial width, and thus can only be defined in a model-independent way by pole positions and residues of the $S$-matrix. This information is incorporated in the…
The decay $B^{\pm}\to DK^{\pm}$ followed by the subsequent decay of the $D$ meson into final states involving a neutral kaon can be used to determine the CKM angle $\gamma$. We study CP violation effects due to mixing and decay of the final…

We discuss the impact of matter effects in the D0-D0bar system. We show that such effects could, in principle, be measured, but that they cannot be used to probe the mass difference x_D or the lifetime difference y_D. This occurs because…
