E769 has just recorded on tape the interactions of 500 million pions, kaons, and protons. A Cerenkov counter and a TRD were used to tag beam particle types in both positive and negative 250 GeV/c hadron beams. Thin foil Be, Al, Cu, and W…

We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor, and lepton-number violating decays of the 3 and 4-body decay modes of D0 (and its antiparticle) containing muons and electrons. Using data from Fermilab…
We search for rare FCNC charm decays of the form $X_c^+\to h^+\llp$, where $X_c^+$ is a charm hadron, $h$ is a pion, kaon or proton, and $\ell^{(}{'}^{)}$ is an electron or a muon. In the pion and kaon modes, we study both $D^+$ and $D_s^+$…
Limits at the 10**-4 level are reported for rare and forbidden decays of the D0 charm meson to a pair of leptons and either a vector meson or two pseudoscalar mesons. Of these searches, 18 are investigations of decays without previous…
