Amplitude analyses of the D+ and Ds+ → K+K−π+ Dalitz plots are presented using data collected by Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. Our fit to a model consisting sum Breit-Wigner amplitudes for intermediate two-body resonant decay modes. We extract fractions relative phases. These results used infer new branching ratios inclusive as well Φπ+ K∗(892)0K+ channels.
An amplitude analysis of the D+, Ds+ → π−π+π+ Dalitz plots is presented using data collected by Fermilab high-energy photoproduction experiment E687. The are fitted to a model consisting sum relativistic Breit-Wigner amplitudes for intermediate two-body resonant decay modes plus flat non-resonant contribution. From fit we derive fractions and relative phases. We also present measurements Γ(D+→π−π+π+)Γ(D+→K−π+π+) Γ(Ds+→π−π+π+)Γ(Ds+→K−K+π+).
Using a large sample of D+ to K- pi+ mu+ nu decays collected by the FOCUS photoproduction experiment at Fermilab, we present new measurements two semileptonic form factor ratios: rv and r2.

A high-statistics sample of photoproduced charm from the FOCUS experiment has been used to search for direct CP violation in decay rates D+-->K(S)pi+ and D+-->K(S)K+. We have measured following asymmetry parameters relative D+-->K-pi+pi+: A(CP)(K(S)pi+) = (-1.6+/-1.5+/-0.9)%, A(CP)(K(S)K+) (+6.9+/-6.0+/-1.5)%, (+7.1+/-6.1+/-1.2)% D+-->K(S)pi+. also branching ratios found Gamma(D+-->K(0)pi+)/Gamma(D+-->K-pi+pi+) (30.60+/-0.46+/-0.32)%, Gamma(D+-->K(0)K+)/Gamma(D+-->K-pi+pi+)...
