Abstract
Charm physics is an active and productive field at hadron colliders. In these proceedings an overview of recent results in charm physics from the Tevatron and LHC experiments is given. Highlighted are the measurements of open charm production and production asymmetries, the recent precision measurements of the D masses, the confirmation of mixing in the D0 system, the searches for CP violation in the charm system and the searches for rare charm decays.
Highlights
The ambition in heavy flavour physics is to find anomalous effects in loop diagrams that may reveal the presence from yet unknown, heavy particles
Measurements of CP violation and searches for rare decays are sensitive to these effects
Most experimental effort is focussed on measuring the properties of beauty hadrons, new physics can well reveal itself in the charm sector
Summary
The ambition in heavy flavour physics is to find anomalous effects in loop diagrams that may reveal the presence from yet unknown, heavy particles. Measurements of CP violation and searches for rare decays are sensitive to these effects Such indirect searches for new particles are complementary to the direct searches at general purpose detectors. Since the charm cross section is about a factor twenty above the beauty cross section, huge amounts of charm decays are available at the hadron colliders This allows to make high-precision tests of the Standard Model. With the availability of large samples of charm decays, hadron collider experiments come more into play in this field These proceedings focus on recent results from the LHC and Tevatron, in particular open charm production and production asymmetries, D mass measurements, D0 mixing, CP violation in the charm system and rare charm decays
