We calculate differential cross sections for exclusive double diffractive (EDD) production of open charm in proton-proton and proton-antiproton collisions. Sizeable cross sections are found. The EDD contribution constitutes about 1 % of the…
In this thesis we study the b-quark fragmentation in top decay as well as the effect of the threshold resummation on heavy quark production in charged-current DIS. To predict the spectrum of b-flavored hadrons in top decay, we calculate at…
We perform an analysis of semi-inclusive production of charm (D-mesons) in neutral current (NC) and charged current (CC) deep inelastic scattering (DIS) at full O(alpha_s^1). Our calculation is based on the heavy quark scheme developed by…
We present measurements on D*+- production cross sections in deep inelastic e+p scattering with 1<Q^2<600 GeV^2 and 0.02<y<0.7 in two restricted kinematic regions in p_t(D*) and eta(D*). The decay channels D*+ -> D0 pi+ with subsequent…
We consider the diffractive photoproduction of $\pi^+\pi^- , K^+K^- , D^+D^-$ meson pairs with high masses and transverse momenta in the framework of the S\"oding model. The total and differential cross sections are calculated for these…

First results on inclusive D0 and D* production in deep inelastic $ep$ scattering are reported using data collected by the H1 experiment at HERA in 1994. Differential cross sections are presented for both channels and are found to agree…
Production of exclusive dijets in diffractive deep inelastic $e^\pm p$ scattering has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 372 pb$^{-1}$. The measurement was performed for $\gamma^*-p$…
The claim that the $X(3872)$ meson cannot be a charm-meson molecule because its prompt production cross section at hadron colliders is too large is based on an upper bound in terms of a cross section for producing charm-meson pairs.…
The requirement of a large pseudo-rapidity gap to select diffractive DIS events at HERA restricts the kinematically accessible region of phase space for a significant range of $Q^2$, $\beta$ and $\xpom$. Consequences of this include a…
The cross section for bottom quark production at fixed-target energies is calculated for a wide range of beam momenta. A detailed analysis is given for the HERA-B experiment. We consider both the order $\alpha_s^3$ cross section and the…
We calculate the differential cross section $d\sigma/dt$ for the diffractive photoproduction process $\gamma p \to \rho p$ and compare to recent data extracted by the CMS collaboration from ultraperipheral proton-lead collisions. Our model…

The cross section for charmed meson production at $\sqrt{s} = 4.03 $ and 4.14 GeV has been measured with the Beijing Spectrometer. The measurement was made using 22.3 $pb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ data collected at 4.03 GeV and 1.5 $pb^{-1}$ of…
At high-energies the gluon-gluon fusion is the dominant mechanism of c \bar c production. This process was calculated in the NLO collinear as well as in the kt-factorization approaches in the past. In this presentation we concentrate on…
