We propose a novel method to measure flavor-oscillations and charge-parity (CP) violation in charm mixing. The approach uses multibody charm decays, such as $D^0\to K_S^0\pi^+\pi^-$, and avoids the need for a fit of the decay amplitudes…
Measurements of the branching fraction ratio ${\cal{B}(\phi \to \mu^+ \mu^-)/\cal{B}(\phi\to e^+e^-)}$ with ${D_{s}^{+} \to \pi^{+} \phi}$ and ${D^{+} \to \pi^{+} \phi}$ decays, denoted $R^{s}_{\phi \pi}$ and $R^{d}_{\phi \pi}$, are…

Due to the quantum correlation between the pair-produced D0 and D0bar from the decay of the psi(3770), the time-integrated single and double tag decay rates depend on charm mixing amplitudes, doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed amplitudes, and the…

We review the current status of D0-antiD0 mixing, with special emphasis in the most recent results. We begin with a discussion of charm mixing and CP violation phenomenology, the evolution with the decay proper time, and physics processes…
According to the standard model, the Cabibbo-favored (CF) decays are $CP$ conserve at tree level. Observation of any finite $CP$ asymmetry can be received as a signal of new physics. In CF charm meson decays, $ D^0 \rightarrow K^- \pi^+ $…
