9. Search for D^0 -> gamma gamma at BESIII

Hajime Muramatsu (University of Rochester)

5/16/12, 4:20 PM

Chair: Xerxes Tata (UH)

Abstract:
The BESIII detector, with the BESCII e+e- collider, has collected the world largest data sample, 2.89/fb, taken at sqrt(s)=3.773 GeV which is very close to the nominal mass of the psi(3770) state. As the psi(3770) decays into a pair of DDbar most of the time, a relatively clean and simple event environment is obtained, and thus, it is very...

10. Search for the rare decay D0 -> mu+ mu- with CMS

11. Rare and Forbidden Charm Meson Decays at BaBar

Owen Long (UC-Riverside)

5/16/12, 5:00 PM

Chair: Xerxes Tata (UH)

Abstract:
Flavor changing neutral current decays in the charm sector are very rare within the standard model, and thus provide a unique environment for searching for new physics. We report tight upper limits on branching fractions of a variety of such processes involving charged and neutral charm mesons and baryons, including processes...

13. NP Prospects in Mixing and CPV at Belle II

12. Mixing, CPV and Rare decay potential of SuperB

Gianluca Inguglia (Queen Mary, University of London)

5/16/12, 5:40 PM

Chair: Xerxes Tata (UH)

Abstract:
We present the prospects of SuperB in terms of charm mixing and CP violation measurements using 75ab^-1 of data at the Y(4S) and 1ab^-1 of data at charm threshold. In addition, we discuss the rare decay potential of this project.
