Mixing Formalism Mixing often expressed in terms of mass and width differences of eigenstates: _ Evolution of D0-D0 system described by time-dependent Schrodinger equation and mixing parameters: _ Mixing occurs when flavor eigenstates (D0, D0) produced in decays are not the same as mass eigenstates (D1, D2).

Common experimental observables CP Violation in Charm CP violation arises as a single complex phase η in the CKM mixing matrix CP violation in SM is CKM suppressed, ~O(10-3) Observation of O(1%) CP violation would be a sign for New Physics CP-violating effects are classified by three parameters: 1) CP violation in decay: 2) CP violation in mixing: 3) CP violation in interference: Common experimental observables Eric White – University of Cincinnati 1/18/2019
