Measurement of $Z$ bosons produced in association with charm jets $(Zc)$ in proton-proton collisions in the forward region provides a direct probe of a potential non-perturbative (intrinsic) charm component in the proton wave function. We…
We discuss the production of $D$ mesons and $J/\psi$ quarkonia in proton-nucleus collisions in the fixed-target LHCb experiment. We consider gluon-gluon fusion within $k_t$-factorization, processes initiated by intrinsic charm in the…
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…
In this article, we report on the STAR results of open charm hadron production at mid-rapidity in $p+p$ and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV and $p+p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 500 GeV. The measurements cover transverse…
The way a charm-quark fragments into a charmed hadron is a challenging problem both for the theoretical and the experimental particle physics. Moreover, in neutrino induced charm-production, peculiar processes occur such as quasi-elastic…
We update the study of the total Psi and Upsilon production cross section in proton-proton collisions at RHIC energies using the QCD-based Color-Singlet (CS) Model, including next-to-leading order partonic matrix elements. We also include…
Electrons from semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons (D and B) allow to study the energy loss of heavy-quarks in nuclear collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV at RHIC. Since pQCD calculations have shown that the crossing point where bottom…
We have calculated the kinematical correlations between charged leptons from semileptonic decays of open charm/bottom as well as leptons produced in the Drell-Yan mechanism in proton-proton collisions at BNL RHIC. Presented production rates…
The latest results on charm-tagged jets and open-charm production obtained with \mbox{ALICE} at the LHC are presented. The baryon-to-meson ratios for $\mathrm{\Lambda^+_c}$, $\mathrm{\Sigma^{0,+,++}_c}$ and $\mathrm{\Xi^{0,+}_c}$ measured…
We present a detailed phenomenological study of the prospects of open charm physics at the future $\bar{p}p$ and $pp$ facilities GSI-FAIR and J-PARC, respectively. In particular, we concentrate on differential cross sections and the charge…
We study the production of multi-charmed hadrons by recombination in heavy ion collisions by focusing on the production of $\Xi_{cc}$, $\Xi_{cc}^*$, $\Omega_{scc}$, $\Omega_{scc}^*$, $\Omega_{ccc}$ baryons and X(3872) mesons. Starting from…
The interaction of heavy partons, charm and beauty, with the matter created in heavy ion collisions has been of great interest in recent years. Heavy partons were predicted to interact less strongly with the matter than light partons. In…
In the present paper, we present detailed discussions on the hadronic production of $\Xi_{cc}$ at a fixed target experiment at the LHC (After@LHC). The charm quarks in hadron could be either extrinsic or intrinsic. By using the BHPS model…
Recent experimental studies of the multiplicity dependence of heavy quark (HQ) production in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV showed a strong non-linear increase of the HQ multiplicity as a function of the charged particle multiplicity. We…
The use of correlation between two open-charm mesons is suggested to give information about the nature of the medium created in heavy-ion collisions. Insensitivity to the charm production rate is achieved by measuring normalized cumulant.…

We calculate the single transverse-spin asymmetry for open charm production in $pp$ collisions within the QCD collinear factorization approach. We include contributions from both twist-three quark-gluon and tri-gluon correlation functions.…

We discuss production of charm quarks, mesons as well as nonphotonic electrons in $pp$ scattering at RHIC. The distributions in rapidity and transverse momentum of charm and bottom quarks/antiquarks are calculated in the $k_t$-factorization…
We study the production dynamics of charm quarks in the parton cascade model for relativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. The model is eminently suited for a study of the pre-equilibrium dynamics of charm quarks at modest…
