A Future Charm Facility

Abstract

The "BTeV/C0" experiment at Fermilab could reconstruct >109 charm decays, four orders of magnitude beyond the largest extant sample. The experiment is likely to run during Tevatron Run II (ca. 2000--2005). In addition to "programmatic" charm physics such as spectroscopy, lifetimes, and QCD tests, it will have significant new-physics reach in the areas of CP violation, flavor-changing neutral-current and lepton-number-violating decays, and D0D0 mixing, and could observe direct CP violation in Cabibbo-suppressed D decays if it occurs at the level predicted by the Standard Model.
