Introduction D K decay plays a “special role” in CLEO –“Large” BF, high efficiency, <1% background Many reasons to study this mode –D 0 K - + normalization for most D 0 BF’s and hence many B decays –ADS method for extracting needs strong phase shift between CF D 0 K - + and DCSD D 0 K + - Can be measured using quantum coherence of (3770) DD decay –Limits on mixing But other K modes are also of interest, such as: –K L 0, K S 0 –K L K S + –K + 0 (DCSD) Understand/test strong dynamics of D decays, phases

Cleo-c Overview e + e - (3770) DD Pure DD final state, no additional particles (E D = E beam ). Low particle multiplicity ~ 5-6 charged particles/event Excellent coverage infer & “reconstruct” in (semi)leptonic decays Pure J PC = 1 - - initial state Quantum correlations D tag D sig K e+e+ e-e- CLEO Analysis - 101 Untagged Analysis Tagged Analysis Reconstruct one D (“tag”): Single tags In “D-tagged” events, count yield of events in a particular signal decay mode: Double tags Absolute BF’s can be computed, independent of , L Needn’t fully reconstruct D sig. If 1 particle is missing from decay, missing mass (MM) is the signal. Used extensively for analyses involving ’s ! e.g. For D sig +X Neglect mixing 10 -3

Quantum Coherence in (3770) D 0 D 0 Diagonalization gives the masses (M 1 & M 2 ) and widths ( 1 & 2 ) of the weakly decaying eigenstates. Convenient to define normalized differences: KK KK KK KK KK KK KK K l CP+ K l CP- K l K l K l CP+CP- CP+ CP- Interference btw CF & DCSD forbidden by CP conservation forbidden by Bose symmetry e e * D 0 D 0 C = 1 maximal constructive interference “unchanged” MixingNo Mixing CF/DCSD Interfere

Summary Probing mixing and DCSD through time-integrated ST and DT BF’s. By the end of the CLEO-c program, expect: – y) ~ 0.012, x 2 )~0.0006, cos K ) ~0.15, R M < O(10 -4 ) – x*sin K ) ~0.024 (Needs C=+1 initial state from DD & DD 0 from 4170 MeV) The K system is a very nice laboratory to study and extract important hadronic parameters. –Isospin decomposition relating observed rates to amplitudes & phases –CLEO’s ability to measure D K L germaine to carrying out these measurements. –D K L,S asymmetries consistent with r K from BF(D 0 K - + )/ BF(D 0 K + ) –Preliminary results indicate K near zero, systematic errors from assumptions still being investigated. –Full fit for amplitudes and strong phases in progress, expect results soon Lots of beautiful results still pouring out of CLEO !
