The "BTeV/C0" experiment at Fermilab could reconstruct >10^9 charm decays, four orders of magnitude beyond the largest extant sample. The experiment is likely to run during Tevatron Run II (ca. 2000--2005). In addition to "programmatic"…

We compute the charm dijet photoproduction cross section at next-to-leading order of QCD in the zero-mass variable flavour number scheme, i.e. with active charm quarks in the proton and photon. The results are compared to recent…
Within the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD), we calculate the fragmentation function for a charm quark into an $S$-wave fully-charmed tetraquark, denoted as $T_{4c}$. The charm-to-$T_{4c}$ fragmentation function is expressed as a…
We calculated the color-octet contribution to the $\ps$ hadroproduction at fixed target energies $\sqrt(s)\simeq40$ GeV. We consider the $\ps$ production with transverse momenta which can not be explained by primordial motion of partons,…

We consider the production of open charm in heavy ion collisions in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate. In the central rapidity region at RHIC, for the charm quark yield we expect N(coll) (number of collisions) scaling in the…
The production of the ${}^1P_1$ charmonium state, $h_c$, at large-$p_T$ at the Tevatron is considered. The colour-octet contributions to this state are found to be dominant and give a reasonably large rate for the production of $h_c$. This…
