Abstract
If there exists a heavy isosinglet h quark that mixes with the d quark in the weak eigenstates, then the neutral meson (hd¯) can mix maximally with its antiparticle H(h¯d) through lowest-order flavor-changing neutral currents regardless of how small the h-d mixing angle may be. The -H mixing parameter ε depends essentially on the mass; for <25 GeV, ε can be as large as 0.4.
