  • 68 Accesses

Part of the book series: The Subnuclear Series ((SUS))

Abstract

This is a review of all the data available on production and decay of charmed particles in e+e- collisions. Production and decay of D*, D, F mesons and charmed baryons are discussed. Comparisons with theoretical predictions, where available, are made.
