This is basically the update of [arXiv:0809.1869], a review on charmed baryon physics around 2007. Topics of this review include the spectroscopy, strong decays, lifetimes, nonleptonic and semileptonic weak decays, and electromagnetic…
An overview of the most important progresses in charm physics since the last CKM Workshop (2014) is presented. Due emphasis is given to the experimental measurements directly related to the CKM matrix.
After briefly recapitulating the history of the charm quantum number we sketch the experimental environments and instruments employed to study the behaviour of charm hadrons and then describe the theoretical tools for treating charm…
This paper is aimed at giving a complete review of the latest (post-1998 Physics in Collision conference) experimental results on charm physics.
Results obtained in neutrino unteractions on charm particles are presented.
We present an overview of recent developments in charm physics reported in the Working~Group~7 meetings of the CKM 2016 workshop. Progresses in experimental analysis and techniques were reported by LHCb, Belle, BABAR and BESIII along with…
The possibility of using the charm system to search for new physics is addressed. Phenomena such as $D^0-\bar D^0$ mixing and rare decays of charmed mesons are first examined in the Standard Model to test our present understanding and to…
The rare and forbidden processes within the Standard Model offer an opportunity to explore potential new physics beyond the SM. We summarize the research method and the recent results of rare charm decays at BESIII based on the extensive…
During the past one hundred years three related elementary particles - the electron, the muon, and the tau - were discovered by very different scientific techniques. The author, who received the Wolf Prize and the Nobel Prize for the…
There have been great advances in charm physics at the B-factories in recent years, including the observation of D0-D0bar mixing and the discovery of many new hidden-charm states, some of them presumably exotic in structure. This talk…
We review the weak-decay and spectroscopy properties of baryons with two charmed quarks. We also present the convergent speculations on exotic mesons $(QQ\bar{q}\bar{q})$ with two heavy quarks and two light antiquarks.
The recently obtained strong evidence for $D^0 - \bar D^0$ oscillations from the $B$ factories provides an important benchmark in our search for New Physics in charm transitions. While the theoretical verdict on the observed values of $x_D$…
The flow of charm is calculated in 2+1 ideal hydrodynamics by introducing the charge of $c\bar{c}$ pair assuming that the number of $c\bar{c}$ pairs is conserved in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. It is found that the mean radial flow…
The physics of charm has become one of the best laboratories exposing the limitations of the naive constituent quark model and also giving hints into a more mature description of meson spectroscopy, beyond the simple quark--antiquark…

Abundance of charm data in the current and future low energy flavor experiments makes it possible to study rare decays of D-mesons with ever increased precision. I discuss theoretical implications of derived constraints on New Physics…
I give a personal account of the development of the field of heavy quarks. After reviewing the experimental discovery of charm and bottom quarks, I describe how the field's focus shifted towards determination of CKM elements and how this…
Measurements performed with pairs of charm mesons produced at threshold from the decay of the $\psi(3770)$ resonance are of great value in flavour physics. The quantum correlation that exists between the two mesons allows unique access to…
This report discusses some recent investigations of the heavy hadron spectra using lattice QCD. The first half addresses multiple precision determinations of the masses of charm (and bottom) baryons. Recent lattice results in the tetraquark…
Detailed studies of weak charm decays fill an important {\em future} role in high energy physics. Chief among them are: (i) validating the theoretical control achieved over hadronization as a worthwhile goal in its own right; (ii)…
