The Physics of Charm: Recent Experimental Results Jim Napolitano (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, USA) The charm quark is massive enough to allow high precision theoretical calculations, yet light enough to allow most of its decay modes to be accessible. Furthermore, its decays are CKM allowed. These ideas set it apart from the other quarks, in particular bottom and strange. I will review the most recent results from a wide variety of experiments, including both charmonium and bare charm. Emphasis will be placed on precision measurements, new states, comparison with Lattice QCD, and prospects for investigating charm mixing and CP violation.
