Lattice QCD has the potential this decade to maximize the sensitivity of the entire flavor physics program to new physics and pave the way for understanding physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC in the coming decade. However, the…
In this mini-review we report on the most recent progress in charm meson spectroscopy. We discuss the precision measurements performed by the BaBar and CLEO-c experiments in the non strange charm meson part and we present the newly…
We review recent experimental results from CLEO and LEP experiments on hadronic decays of hadrons containing $b$ quarks. We discuss charm counting and the semileptonic branching fraction in $B$ decays and the color suppressed amplitude in…
Using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron-positron Storage Ring, we have measured the scaled momentum spectra, dsigma/dx_p, and the inclusive production cross sections of the charm mesons D+, D0, D*+, and D*0 in e+e- annihilation at…
Measurements performed with pairs of charm mesons produced at threshold from the decay of the $\psi(3770)$ resonance are of great value in flavour physics. The quantum correlation that exists between the two mesons allows unique access to…
Using the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have measured inclusive and exclusive cross sections for the production of D+, D0 and Ds+ mesons in e+e- annihilations at thirteen center-of-mass energies between 3.97 and…
We argue that the recent CLEO-c data on $e^+e^-$ annihilation into pairs of charmed mesons at c.m. energy around 4.0 GeV are not well described by a single resonance $\psi(4040)$, but can be better understood if there is an additional…
We review the recent results on D and D_s meson semileptonic decays from CLEO-c, BABAR, and Belle. Comparisons with lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) calculations and implications for B physics are also discussed.
After the successful conclusion of the CLEO III phase, the CLEO experiment at the Cornell Electron Positron Storage Ring CESR is preparing for its transition to CLEO-c. This new program contains a wide array of Physics studies at e+ e-…

Using the CLEO-II detector, we have obtained evidence for a new meson decaying to $D^0 K^+$. Its mass is $2573.2^{+1.7}_{-1.6}\pm 0.8\pm 0.5$ {}~MeV/$c^2$ and its width is $16^{+5}_{-4}\pm 3$~MeV/$c^2$. Although we do not establish its spin…
The charm semileptonic decays $D^+\to\eta e^+\nu_{e}$ and $D^+\to\eta'e^+\nu_{e}$ are studied with a sample of $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 3.773 GeV with the…
The CLEO detector will undergo major improvements in conjunction with a high luminosity upgrade of the CESR electron positron collider, that should increase the luminosity of this machine by a factor of 10. The most innovative feature of…
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.…
