We analyze the charm quark electric dipole moment (EDM) in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM), including important two-loop gluino contributions. Considering the experimental constraint on the neutron EDM, the…
Using 4.7 fb^-1 of data taken at CESR at energies at and near the Upsilon(4S) we have studied the decay B- -> D{*+}pi-pi- (and its conjugate). We observe a new, broad charmed meson state, which we interpret as D_J(j=1/2), in its decay to…
We discuss the $p\bar{p}$ annihilation into a pair of charmed $D$ mesons not far from the threshold of the reaction. An interesting interference pattern in the differential cross section is predicted to arise from the existence of both…
We investigate the processes $e^+e^-$ annihilating to $J/\psi\pi\pi$, $\psi^\prime\pi\pi$ and $h_c\pi\pi$. The coupled-channel effects induced by the couplings between the widely accepted $D$-wave charmonium $\psi(4160)$ and $D_1D$,…
We elaborate the inclusive production of single heavy-flavored hadrons in e^+e^- annihilation at next-to-leading order in the general-mass variable-flavor-number scheme. In this framework, we determine non-perturbative fragmentation…
We propose an explanation of the new resonances observed in $D_s^{(*)+} \pi^0$ decays. We suggest that the data can be explained by the mixing of conventional p-wave excited $D_s^+$ mesons with 4-quark states. The narrow states observed in…
We review the recent results on D and Ds meson semileptonic decays from CLEO-c. Comparisons with lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) calculations and implications for B physics are also discussed.
It is argued that the charged $Z^+_c(3885)$ resonance, treated as a `molecular' state of charmed $D$ and $D^*$ mesons, is likely to consist of two peaks unequally coupled to the $D^{*+} \bar D^0$ and $D^+ \bar D^{*0}$ channels. The peaks…
Using data recorded by the CLEO II detector at CESR, we report evidence for two new charmed baryons, one decaying into $\Xi_c^+\pi^+\pi^-$ via an intermediate $\Xi_c^{*0}$, and its isospin partner decaying into $\Xi_c^0\pi^+\pi^-$ via an…
It is shown that the nontrivial energy dependencies of $D\bar{D}$, $D\bar{D}^{*}$, and $D^{*}\bar{D}^{*}$ pair production cross sections in $e^{+}e^{- }$ annihilation are well described within the approach based on account for the…
An amplitude analysis of the $B^+\to D_s^+ D_s^- K^+$ decay is carried out to study for the first time its intermediate resonant contributions, using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies…
We present a study of the $D^+\pi^-$, $D^0\pi^+$, and $D^{*+}\pi^-$ systems in inclusive $e^+e^- \rightarrow c\bar{c}$ interactions in a search for new excited $D$ meson states. We use a dataset, consisting of $\sim$454 fb$^{-1}$, collected…
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…
We present recent results in the charm sector from the CLEO Collaboration. The data used were collected by the CLEO II and III detectors at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). Measurements of form factors and branching fractions in…
The baryonic decay $D^+_s\rightarrow p\bar{n}$ is observed, and the corresponding branching fraction is measured to be $(1.21\pm0.10\pm0.05)\times10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and second systematic. The data sample…
In 60 pb$^{-1}$ of data taken on the $\psi(3770)$ resonance with the CLEO-c detector, we find 8 $D^+\to\mu^+\nu$ event candidates that are mostly signal, containing only 1 estimated background. Using this statistically compelling sample, we…
Using the initial-state radiation method, the $e^+e^- \to K_S K_L$ cross section from 1.98 to 2.54 GeV is measured in a data sample of 469 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the BABAR detector. The results are used in conjunction with previous BABAR…
