Standard model mixing and CP violation are expected to be small in the charm sector. Some argue that only in the presence of new physics do we currently expect to observe these effects. Fermilab experiment E791 has the largest sample of…

A high statistics sample of photoproduced charm particles from the FOCUS(E831) experiment at Fermilab has been used to measure the D0 and D+ lifetimes. Using about 210000 D0 and 110000 D+ events we obtained the following values: 409.6 +/-…
