Abstract

We present predictions for the inclusive production of leptons (e±,μ±e^{\pm},\mu^{\pm}) originating from charm and bottom-hadrons at the CERN LHC in the general-mass variable-flavor-number scheme at next-to-leading order. Detailed numerical results are compared to data of the CMS, ATLAS and ALICE collaborations.
