Description

The LHCb experiment was designed to play a decisive role in the study of particle and flavor physics. From the very beginning, LHCb has performed measurements of CP violation in the decays of hadrons containing the charm quark with extremely high precision, and in 2019 it observed direct CP violation in the two-body charged decays of the $D^0$ meson for the first time, using data collected during Run 2.

During the LHC Long Shutdown 2, the LHCb experiment underwent a major upgrade, completely replacing several sub-detectors and implementing a fully software-based trigger. Thanks to these modifications, in 2024 the experiment was able to collect an integrated luminosity comparable to that gathered during Runs 1 and 2, enabling new levels of statistical precision

This contribution will present recent results from the LHCb experiment, including the first result with Run 3 data, on CP violation in the charm sector and on production asymmetries of charm hadrons.
