Measurements of prompt charm production cross-sections in pp collisions at √s=5 TeV. J. High Energ. Phys. 2017, 147 (2017). https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP06(2017)1471029-8479http://hdl.handle.net/10347/22667Production cross-sections of prompt charm mesons are measured using data from pp collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 5 TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 8.60 ± 0.33 pb−1 collected by the LHCb experiment. The production cross-sections of D 0, D +, D +s, and D ∗+ mesons are measured in bins of charm meson transverse momentum, p T, and rapidity, y. They cover the rapidity range 2.0 < y < 4.5 and transverse momentum ranges 0 < p T < 10 GeV/c for D 0 and D + and 1 < p T < 10 GeV/c for D +s and D ∗+ mesons. The inclusive cross-sections for the four mesons, including charge-conjugate states, within the range of 1 < p T < 8 GeV/c are determined to be σ(pp→D0X)=1004±3±54μb,σ(pp→D+X)=402±2±30μb,σ(pp→D+sX)=170±4±16μb,σ(pp→D∗+X)=421±5±36μb, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.eng© CERN, for the benefit of the LHCb Collaboration.
