A Future High Statistics Charm Mixing Experiment Using the Fermilab Tevatron

Abstract

We present an idea for a future D0-D0bar mixing and CP violation experiment to run at the Fermilab Tevatron. We estimate that in three years of running, such an experiment could reconstruct an order of magnitude more flavor-tagged D0->K+pi- decays than will be reconstructed by the B-factory experiments with their full data sets. The resulting sensitivity to CP-violating parameters |q/p| and Arg(q/p) is calculated from a global fit to CP-violating observables, and it is found to be much greater than current world sensitivity.
