چکیده

E791 is a high statistics charm experiment that acquired data at Fermilab during the 1991-1992 xed-target run. The experiment combined a fast data acquisition system with an open trigger. Over 2 10 events were collected with the Tagged Photon Spectrometer [1] using a 500 GeV beam. There were ve target foils with 15 mm centerto-center separations: one 0.5 mm thick platinum foil followed by four 1.6 mm thick diamond foils. The spectrometer included 23 planes of silicon microstrip detectors (6 upstream and 17 downstream of the target), 2 dipole magnets, 10 planes of proportional wire chambers (8 upstream and 2 downstream of the target), 35 drift chamber planes, 2 multi-cell Cerenkov counters that provided =K separation in the 6-60 GeV/c momentum range [2], electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters, and a muon detector.

05 4 v 1 1 8 A ug 1 99 9 UCTP - 112 - 99 RECENT CHARM RESULTS FROM FERMILAB EXPERIMENT

Fermilab experiment E791 studied weak decays of D + , D + s , and D 0 mesons produced in collisions of 500 GeV/c negative pions with Pt and C targets. The experiment collected over 200 000 fully reconstructed charm decays. Four recent results are discussed here: (a) measurement of the form factor ratios V /A 1 , A 2 /A 1 , and A 3 /A 1 in D + → K * 0 ℓ + ν ℓ and D + s → φ ℓ + ν ℓ decays; (b) me...

Review of Recent Searches for Rare and Forbidden Dilepton Decays of Charmed Mesons

I briefly review the results of recent searches for flavor-changing neutral current and lepton-flavor and lepton-number violating decays of D, D s , and D 0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. The primary focus is the results from Fermilab charm hadroproduction experiment E791. E791 examined 24 πll and Kll decay modes of D and D s and l l decay modes of D...

Light Scalar Mesons in Charm Meson Decays

We present recent results on scalar light mesons based on Dalitz plot analyses of charm decays from Fermilab experiment E791. Low mass scalar mesons are found to have large contributions to the decays studied, D → Kππ and D,D s → πππ. These results demonstrate the importance of charm decays as a new environment for the study of light meson physics.

Cp Violation in Charm

Recent results on searches for CP and CPT violation in the charm sector are presented. These results include limits on direct CP violation in several channels from the FOCUS and CLEO experiments. The first reported search for CPT violation in charm, a preliminary result by the FOCUS collaboration, is also presented. 1 Charm CP Violation Introduction CP violation is generally divided into three ...

Search for Rare and Forbidden Dilepton Decays of the D + , D + s , and D 0 Charmed Mesons Fermilab E 791 Collaboration

We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor violating, and lepton-number violating decays of D+, D+ s , and D 0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. Using data from Fermilab charm hadroproduction experiment E791, we examine the πll and Kll decay modes of D+ and D+ s and the l +l− decay modes of D0. No evidence for a...
