We estimate the cross sections for the inclusive production of $\Theta^+$ and $\Lambda(1520)$ in $pp$ collisions at high energy using the $K$ exchange diagrams. We find that inclusive $\Theta^+$ production should be at the level of 1 $\mu$b…

The recombination production of $B_c$ mesons in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC energy is facilitated by the abundant and highly thermalized charm ($c$) quarks transported in the deconfined medium created. We study the production of $B_c$…
