Using 6 fb-1 of data, the CDF experiment presents a new measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in D*-tagged D0-->pi^+pi^- decays, where any enhancement from the standard model prediction (of the order of 10-3) would be unambiguous evidence for New Physics. A technique combining asymmetries of pi^+pi^-, and K^-pi^+ D0 decays highly suppresses systematic uncertainties due to detector...

Precision measurements in charm physics offer a window into a unique sector of potential New Physics interactions. LHCb is poised to become a world leading experiment for charm studies, recording enormous statistics with a detector tailored for flavour physics. The conditions of the 2010-11 run of LHC are especially conducive to the collection of charm events, with a very large data set...

If the SUSY-breaking scale is low, as preferred for a solution of the hierarchy problem, then light, coloured SUSY particles may be copiously produced in the initial LHC run at 7 TeV; in the most favourable scenarios the squark and gluino masses may even be measured to a respectable accuracy. I show how this early LHC data can be combined with existing measurements in the flavour sector to...
