Charmed Meson Spectroscopy

In the two years since HQL02, the long sought \(j_{\ell}=1/2\) states have been observed. In the charmed non-strange sector, these states have the expected properties but, in the charmed strange sector, the states have masses below threshold for the otherwise dominant decay modes, allowing their observation in suppressed modes. Improved measurements of the masses and widths of the well established P-wave charm states have also been published.
