I review the sensitivities achieved by and projected for fixed-target charm experiments in CP violation, flavor-changing neutral-current and lepton-number-violating decays, and mixing, and I describe the Charm2000 experiment intended to run…
I summarize results and performance of the dynamical theory of charmless hadronic B decays, based on QCD factorization in the heavy quark limit. On the theoretical side, a number of NNLO (alpha_s^2) amplitudes are now available, all showing…
Lattice QCD (LQCD) calculations play a key role in the establishment of flavor anomalies. One of the most recent advancements in LQCD to this end has been the publication of several calculations of the $B\to D^\ast\ell\nu$ form factors, but…
The study of lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV) in semitauonic $b$-hadron decays has become increasingly important in light of longstanding anomalies in their measured branching fractions, and the very large datasets anticipated…
We present recent results on charm physics from CLEO-III, emphasizing QCD and hadronic structure. These include the decay $\Xi_c^0\to pK^-K^-\pi^+$ and the form factor for $D^0\to\pi^-e^+\nu_e$. We also discuss upcoming measurements with…
An overview over the recent heavy flavour results of the H1 and ZEUS collaborations is presented. Various techniques to tag the heavy quark, which allow to explore different phase space regions, are employed. Predictions of pertubative QCD…
The FOCUS photoproduction experiment took data in the ninenties and produced a wealth of results in charm physics. Some of the studies were seminal for contemporary experiments, and even paved the way for the technology of many charm and…
I review the basic ideas behind lattice QCD calculations that involve charm and bottom quarks. I report on the progress in getting the correct hyperfine splitting in charmonium from lattice QCD. Some of the basic technology behind numerical…
Motivated by the recent measurement of $D^0\to\rho^0\gamma$ improved standard model (SM) predictions for branching ratios and CP asymmetries of radiative charm decay are given. Weak annihilation induced decays are probes of non-perturbative…
We review two lattice calculations involving charm hadrons: a determination of the vector and scalar form factors of the semileptonic $D \to \pi \ell \nu$ decays, which are relevant for the extraction of the CKM matrix element $\lvert…
The results for observables of semileptonic decays of bottom and charm baryons (Isgur-Wise functions, decay rates, distributions, asymmetry parameters) are given within relativistic quark model. A comparison with recent experimental data…
The evaluation, systematic analysis and numerical study of the semileptonic $\tau$-lepton decays with two mesons in the final state has been made in the frame of the standard model extended by right handed neutrinos. In the analysis,…
In modern experiments on flavour physics it is possible to search for the decays of $B$ or $D$ mesons or $\tau$ leptons into final states with heavy neutrinos $N$ (a.k.a. heavy neutral leptons). I present a common study of theorists and…
Recent results on heavy flavor production at HERA are presented. New measurements of charm production are available in the region of $ Q^2 <$ 1000 GeV$^2$ for $D^*$ and in the photoproduction limit, $Q^2\to 0$, for $D_s$. The results are…
Precise measurements of the tau lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model structure and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of a few selected topics: lepton universality, QCD tests…
Although searches for new physics at the CERN Large Hadron Collider will probably dominate the the agenda of the experimental high energy physics community during the next decade or more, high-intensity experiments at the tau-charm and…
Motivated by recent experimental results we reconsider semileptonic $D \to P \ell \nu_{\ell} $ decays within a model which combines heavy quark symmetry and properties of the chiral Lagrangian. We include excited charm meson states, some of…
Studies of rare decays of charmed mesons into the final states containing leptons is an important vehicle in low-energy searches for new physics. I review theoretical implications of those studies involving transitions with and without…
For a long time the significance of charm has been overlooked as an important component of the heavy flavour programme. In recent years the balance has been redressed, and charm studies are quite rightly receiving much more attention. This…
Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) calculation predicts that a colour-deconfined QCD matter, Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), is formed at high temperature and energy density reached in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Heavy quarks…
