Measurement of CP Violation in $D^0/\bar{D}^0$    [PDF]

Michael Joseph Morello
Charm physics has played all along a central role in particle physics, however the level of attention on it has tremendously increased in the last years because of the observation of "fast" $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ flavour oscillations and because of very recent observed hints of CP violation. While in the past these would have been unambiguously interpreted as signs of New Physics, the revisitation of theoretical expectations, prompted by the latest experimental measurements, makes the picture not clear. This brief review covers the current status of CP-violating measurements in the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ system, both on the experimental and theoretical side.
