We discuss prospects for detecting the two charm-related phenomena of $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing and weak radiative decays of $D$ mesons ({\it e.g.} $D\to K^* + \gamma$). A general update of particle-antiparticle mixing for the pseudoscalar…

We consider the time dependence of the decays of tagged $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ into CP-conjugate final states $f$ and $\bar{f}$, or into a CP eigenstate $F$. We expand each decay width as $\exp (- \Gamma t)$ times a series in $\Gamma t$,…
