A mistake in the computer program performing the power law fit of the numerical computation of the hadron attenuation ratio R M has been detected. The mistake affects all fits which include the Xe nucleus. Below we present corrected results for table 2 and Figs. 8-10.Based on the corrected calculation we revise our conclusion in ref. [1]. The A 2/3 power law for 1 − R M in the absorption model remains also after including the Xe nucleus in the (c,α) fit.

Using data from the FOCUS experiment we analyze the D + π − and D 0 π + invariant mass distributions. We measure the D * 0 2 mass M D * 0 2 = (2464.5 ± 1.1 ± 1.9) MeV/c 2 and width Γ D * 0 2

The ratio of cumulant to factorial moments of experimental multiplicity distributions has been calculated for e + e − and hh interactions in a wide range of energies. As a function of the rank it exhibits an initial steep decrease and a series of oscillations around zero. Those features cannot be reproduced by the Negative Binomial Distribution. A comparable behaviour is instead predicted in high-energy perturbative QCD. The presence of a qualitatively similar behaviour for different processes and in wide energy intervals suggests speaking of an approximate scaling of the cumulant to factorial moment ratio.

We have performed a search for CPT violation in neutral charm meson oscillations. While flavor mixing in the charm sector is predicted to be small by the Standard Model, it is still possible to investigate CPT violation through a study of the proper time dependence of a CPT asymmetry in right-sign decay rates for D 0 → K − π + and D 0 → K + π − . This asymmetry is related to the CPT violating complex parameter ξ and the mixing parameters x and y: A CP T ∝ Re ξ y − Im ξ x. Our 95% confidence level limit is −0.0068 < Re ξ y − Im ξ x < 0.0234. Within the framework of the Standard Model Extension incorporating general CPT violation, we also find 95% confidence level limits for the expressions involving coefficients of Lorentz violation of (−2.8 < N (x, y, δ)(∆a 0 +0.6 ∆a Z ) < 4.8)×10 −16 GeV, (−7.0 < N (x, y, δ)∆a X < 3.8) × 10 −16 GeV, and (−7.0 < N (x, y, δ)∆a Y < 3.8) × 10 −16 GeV, where N (x, y, δ) is the factor which incorporates mixing parameters x, y and the doubly Cabibbo suppressed to Cabibbo favored relative strong phase δ.
