In this talk, I review the recent experimental results on charmonium spectroscopy from BESIII, Belle, BaBar and CLEOc. Below the open-charm threshold, the masses and widths of spin-singlet states eta_c, eta_c(2S), h_c are measured with high…
I discuss new results on absolute branching ratios of charm mesons into specific exclusive final states, Cabibbo suppressed decay rates, inclusive decays to $s\bar{s}$ mesons, limits on D^0 anti-D^0 mixing, CP violation and T violation.…
We have measured the inclusive semileptonic branching fractions of $D^0$, $D^+$, and $D^+_s$ mesons. For these measurements, we have used the full CLEO-c open-charm data samples, 818 pb$^{-1}$ at $E_\text{CM} = 3.774$ GeV, giving $D^0…
The strong interactions programme of the NA61/SHINE experiment at the CERN SPS has been extended through the use of new silicon Vertex Detector, which allows for reconstructing open charm particles. The detector was designed to identify…
We enlarge the so-called extended linear Sigma model (eLSM) by including the charm quark according to the global $U(4)_r\times U(4)_l$ chiral symmetry. In the eLSM, besides scalar and pseudoscalar mesons, also vector and axial-vector mesons…
The first measurement of heavy-flavour production by the LHCb experiment in its fixed-target mode is presented. The production of $J/\psi$ and $D^0$ mesons is studied with beams of protons of different energies colliding with gaseous…

We present recent results from charmonium and open charm production at the LHCb experiment at CERN, Geneva. We concentrate on studies for the measurement of the cross section pp ->JPsi+X in its decay channel with two muons, showing the…
For a long time the significance of charm has been overlooked as an important component of the heavy flavour programme. In recent years the balance has been redressed, and charm studies are quite rightly receiving much more attention. This…
The in-medium properties of open strange ($K$, $\bar{K}$), open charm ($D$, $\bar{D}$), and open bottom ($B$, $\bar{B}$) mesons are investigated in asymmetric nuclear matter using Quark Meson Coupling (QMC) model. A direct coupling of…
The $B_c$ meson, a unique bound state comprising of two open heavy flavors, charm and bottom, offers a rich avenue for probing the predictions of the Next Decade - Standard Model (ND-SM) physics properties due to its heavy mass. With recent…
We extend the two-flavor hard-wall holographic model of Erlich, Katz, Son and Stephanov [Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ {\bf 95}, 261602 (2005)] to four flavors to incorporate strange and charm quarks. The model incorporates chiral and flavor symmetry…
We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $D\bar D$, $D\bar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative…
There has been much progress in measurements of charmless hadronic B decays during 1997. Building on the previous indications from CLEO and LEP, CLEO now has clear signals in five exclusive final states: K^+\pi^, K^0\pi^+, etapr K^+, etapr…
LHCb continues to expand its world-leading sample of charmed hadrons collected during LHC's Run 1 (2010-2012) and Run 2 (2015-present). This sample is yielding some of the most stringent tests of the Standard Model understanding of charm…
The strong interactions programme of the NA61/SHINE experiment at CERN SPS has been extended through the use of new silicon Vertex Detector which provides precise measurements of exotic particles with short lifetime. The detector was…
Rare heavy flavor decays provide stringent tests of the Standard Model of particle physics and allow to test for possible new Physics scenarios. The LHCb experiment at CERN is the ideal place for these searches as it has recorded the worlds…
$|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ processes are unique probes of flavor physics in the up-sector within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). SM tests with rare semileptonic charm meson decays are based on an approximate CP--symmetry, a superior…
Recent heavy flavour results from the LEP experiments are presented. These include a search for new physics in rare B decays, a new model-independent measurement of the b-quark fragmentation function at the Z peak, updated measurements of…
