We presented the first observation of D0-$$\bar{D}$$0 mixing in a single analysis. We measured the ratio of doubly Cabibbo suppressed or WS (D0 → K+π-) decay rate to Cabibbo favored or RS (D0 → K-π+) decay rate as a function of D0 decay time. We used an integrated luminosity of 4.0 fb-1 of proton anti-proton collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV at the collider detector at Fermilab (CDF II).
