We present an analysis of the exclusive semileptonic decay mode D/sup 0/ ..-->.. K/sup -/e/sup +/nu/sub e/. We have measured the ratio of decay rates GAMMA(D/sup 0/ ..-->.. K/sup -/e/sup +/nu/sub e/)/GAMMA(D/sup 0/ ..-->.. K/sup -/..pi../sup +/). After correcting for the reconstruction efficiencies and subtracting the contribution from other decay modes we have found the ratio to be equal to 0.77 +- 0.12(stat) +- 0.13(syst).

Using the data from Fermilab experiment 691, we have observed signals for the decays D/sub s//sup +- / and D/sup +- /..--> pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup +- / and have analyzed these modes for the fraction due to rho/sup 0/..pi../sup +- / and f/sub 0/(975)..pi../sup +- /. In addition, we have searched for the decays D/sub s//sup +- / and D/sup +- /..--> pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup +- /. Values or upper limits are reported for the relative branching fractions for all of the above decays.

The decay D/sup +/..-->..K/sup -/..pi../sup +/e/sup +/..nu../sub e/ has been studied in the Fermilab photoproduction experiment E691. The ratio of branching ratios, B(D/sup +/..-->..K-bar/sup *//sup 0/e/sup +/..nu../sub e/)/B (D/sup +/..-->..K/sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup +/), is found to be 0.49 +- 0.04 +- 0.05, corresponding to a D/sup +/..-->..K-bar/sup *//sup 0/e/sup +/..nu../sub e/ branching ratio of (4.5 +- 0.7 +- 0.5)%. The branching ratio to the nonresonant (K/sup -/..pi../sup +/)/sub NR/e..nu../sub e/ final state is found to be less than 0.7% at the 90% confidence level. The K/sup *//sup 0/ mesons have a ratio of longitudinal to transverse polarization of 2.4/sub -0.9//sup +1.7/ +- 0.2. .AE

We have measured the lifetimes of the D/sup 0/, D/sup +/, and D/sub s//sup +/ mesons which were produced by a high-energy photon beam incident on beryllium. Using the Fermilab Tagged Photon Spectrometer with a silicon-microstrip vertex detector we have collected 10/sup 8/ events from which we have extracted about 4200 D/sup 0/ decays in the K/sup -/..pi../sup +/ and K/sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/ modes, 3000 D/sup +/ into the K/sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup +/ channel, and a total of 230 D/sub s//sup +/ into phi..pi../sup +/ and K-bar/sup *//sup 0/K/sup +/. From an analysis of these events we have determined the lifetimes for the D/sup 0/, D/sup +/, and D/sub s//sup +/ to be 0.422 +- 0.008 +- 0.010, 1.090 +- 0.030 +- 0.025, and 0.47 +- 0.04 +- 0.02 psec, respectively
