We review several key aspects of charm phenomenology which are important for the general program of determination of matrix elements of the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskava (CKM) matrix. We argue that charm physics plays an important role in…
Measurements of many Standard Model constants are clouded by uncertainties in nonperturbative QCD parameters that relate measurable quantities to the underlying parton-level processes. Generally these QCD parameters have been obtained from…
The determination of CKM matrix elements in the b-sector is discussed, emphasizing the new measurements of Vub and Vcb by the CLEO collaboration.
We introduce the contributions to the proceedings of Working Group V. The main topics were: present and future experiments dedicated to charm physics, the interplay between high-precision measurements and better control over theoretical…
The combination of precise experimental measurements and theoretical predictions allows to extract Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements or constrain flavor changing processes in the standard model. Focusing at theoretical…
In this talk I review some recent results from lattice QCD calculations which aim to a more accurate determination of the Standard Model parameters in the quark sector. After a review of our current knowledge of these parameters, I present…
In this review we present and discuss the determination of the magnitude of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix parameter $V_{cb}$. The CKM matrix parametrizes the weak charged current interactions of quarks in the Standard Model…
One important task in the field of flavor physics is to over-constrain the CKM matrix. To best extract CKM matrix elements, we need inputs from both experimental data and theoretical calculations. Latest knowledge about the CKM matrix shows…
The CLEO collaboration proposes to explore the charm sector starting early 2003. It is foreseen to collect on the order of 6 million D D-bar pairs, 300000 Ds Ds-bar pairs at threshold and one billion J/psi decays. High precision charm data…
We show that it is now possible to fully determine the CKM matrix, for the first time, using lattice QCD. |V_{cd}|, |V_{cs}|, |V_{ub}|, |V_{cb}| and |V_{us}| are, respectively, directly determined with our lattice results for form factors…
A new method for a precision measurement of the CKM matrix element |Vub| is discussed, which combines good theoretical control with high efficiency and a powerful discrimination against charm background. The resulting combined theoretical…
Our charm program uses a mixed action with twisted-mass valence quarks over non-perturbatively improved Wilson sea quarks, in order to study various quantities in a relativistic and manifestly local framework of full QCD. The sea sector…
We report on the physics potential of a proposed conversion of the CESR machine and the CLEO detector to a charm and QCD factory: ``CLEO-c and CESR-c'' that will make crucial contributions to quark flavor physics this decade, and may offer…
Moments of B -> X l nu and B -> Xs gamma decays can determine nonperturbative QCD parameters that relate the semileptonic decay width to Vcb. CLEO pioneered measurement of these moments, determined the relevant QCD parameters from the…
A full determination of the CKM matrix using recent results from lattice QCD is presented. To extract the CKM matrix in a uniform fashion, I exclusively use results from unquenched lattice QCD as the theory input for nonperturbative QCD…
A proposal for a three-year program of charm and QCD physics with the CLEO detector operating in the range of sqrt{s} = 3 - 5 GeV is presented. The CLEO-c program will include studies of semileptonic and hadronic charm decays, as well as…
Quark mass determinations based on lattice QCD simulations have continued to make strides in recent years. Here I review that progress with a focus on developments computing the charm (and bottom) quark masses since the 2015 edition of…
Precise lattice QCD results for hadronic matrix elements, decay constants and form factors play a crucial role in the determination of CKM matrix elements and in the identification of possible new physics contributions to flavour violating…
Strategies that utilise the interference effects within $B^{\pm} \to DK^{\pm}$ decays hold great potential for improving our sensitivity to the CKM angle $\gamma$. However, in order to exploit fully this potential, detailed knowledge of the…
We report on the physics potential of a proposed conversion of the CESR machine and the CLEO detector to a charm and QCD factory: CLEO-c and CESR-c that will make crucial contributions to flavor physics in this decade and offers our best…
