In high-energy proton proton ($pp$) collisions at the LHC, non-prompt charm hadrons, originating from beauty hadron decays, provide a valuable probe for beauty quark dynamics, particularly at low transverse momentum where direct beauty…
Effects of strong longitudinal colour electric fields (SCF), shadowing, and quenching on the open prompt charm mesons (D$^0$, D$^+$, D$^{*+}$, D${_s}{^+}$) production in central Pb + Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV are…
We present our new measurement of the cross-section for charm dimuon production in neutrino-iron interactions based upon the full statistics collected by the NOMAD experiment. After background subtraction we observe 15,344 charm dimuon…

We discuss cross sections for $\nu_{\tau}$ and ${\overline \nu}_{\tau}$ production from the direct $D_s^{\pm} \to \nu_{\tau}/{\overline \nu}_{\tau}$ and chain $D_s^{\pm} \to \tau^+/\tau^- \to \nu_{\tau}/{\overline \nu}_{\tau}$ decays in…
Results from the CLEO Collaboration, mainly dealing with the study of charmed mesons produced at flavor threshold but also covering other areas of CLEO's investigation, are reviewed.
Background: Intrinsic charm, nonperturbative charm in the hadron wavefunction, has long been speculated but has never been satisfactorily proven. Open charm and $J/\psi$ measurements in a fixed-taget configuration at the LHCb searched for…
Charged current DIS charm production measures the strange-quark PDF. A complete analysis requires both a fully differential theoretical calculation, and a Monte Carlo detector simulation. We present analytic and numeric results at NLO…
Charmed hadron observables from the RHIC to LHC energies have been very successfully described with the recently advanced EPOS4HQ event generator. Here we extend this investigation to the production of beauty hadrons in proton-proton (pp)…
We present a calculation of the NLO QCD corrections to heavy flavor photoproduction with longitudinally polarized beams. We apply our results to study the spin asymmetry for total charm quark production which will be used for a first direct…
Events with observed D* and/or muons in the final state were used to indicate the presence of beauty quark production and to study the correlations between the particles coming from the same or different B-hadrons. The Next-to-Leading Order…
Recent measurements of prompt charm-baryon production at midrapidity in pp and p--Pb collisions show baryon-to-meson yield ratios significantly higher than those in $\rm e^+e^-$ collisions, suggesting that the charm fragmentation is not…
Measurements of open charm hadro-production from CERN and Fermilab experiments are reviewed, with particular emphasis on the absolute cross sections and on their A and sqrt(s) dependences. Differential pt and xf cross sections calculated…
We study inclusive $J/\psi$ photoproduction at NLO at large $P_T$ at HERA and the EIC. Our computation includes NLO QCD leading-$P_T$ corrections, QED contributions via an off-shell photon as well as those from $J/\psi$+charm channels. For…
Studies of charm and beauty production in ep collisions with a center-of-mass energy of 318 GeV are reported from the two HERA collaborations, H1 and ZEUS. The analyses make use of both the HERA-I data sample recorded between 1996 and 2000…
We present the first predictions for sub-threshold open charm and charmonium production in nuclear collisions. The production mechanism is driven by multi-step scatterings of nucleons and their resonance states, accumulating sufficient…
We calculate the A-dependence of charm and beauty production cross sections on nuclear targets taking into account the difference of quark and gluon distributions in free nucleons and in nucleus. At comparatively low energies, if $\sigma…
