Precision results on the leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic decays of charm mesons are reviewed. These results are important for timely progress in weak flavor physics both in their own right and as checks of theoretical calculations.…
I discuss the physics reach of a fixed-target charm experiment which can reconstruct >10^8 charm decays, three orders of magnitude beyond the largest extant sample. Such an experiment may run at Fermilab shortly after the Year 2000. In…
We report on our first set of results for charm physics, using a mixed-action setup with maximally twisted valence fermions on CLS $N_f=2+1$ ensembles. This setup avoids the need of improvement coefficients to subtract $O(am_c)$ effects.…
