If the $X(3872)$ is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, it can be produced by the creation of $D^{*0} \bar{D}^0$ or $D^{0} \bar{D}^{*0}$ at short distances followed by the formation of the bound state from the charm-meson pair. The $X$ can…
We predict the differential cross sections for production of the X(3872) at the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider from both prompt QCD mechanisms and from decays of b hadrons. The prompt cross section is calculated using the NRQCD…
The dependence of the production of the $X(3872)$ meson on the hadron multiplicity in $pp$ collisions has been used as evidence against $X$ being a charm-meson molecule. The argument is based in part on the incorrect assumption that the…

In a recent paper we have proposed a method to estimate the prompt production cross section of X(3872) at the Tevatron assuming that this particle is a loosely bound molecule of a D and a D*bar meson. Under this hypothesis we find that it…
In this proceeding we show the results found for the cross sections of the processes $\bar D D\to\pi X(3872)$, $\bar D^* D\to \pi X(3872)$ and $\bar D^* D^*\to\pi X(3872)$, information needed for calculations of the $X(3872)$ abundance in…
We have determined the production cross sections of the $X(3872)$ state in the reactions $\bar D D\to\pi X$, $\bar D^* D\to \pi X$ and $\bar D^* D^*\to\pi X$, information which is useful for studies of the $X(3872)$ meson abundance in heavy…
Cross sections for the charm-production reactions $\bar p p \to \bar \Lambda_c^- \Sigma_c^+$, $\bar \Sigma_c\Sigma_c$, $\bar \Xi_c\Xi_c$, and $\bar \Xi_c'\Xi_c'$ are presented, for energies near their respective thresholds. The results are…
We evaluate the production cross sections of $X(3872)$ at the LHC and Tevatron at NLO in $\alpha_s$ in NRQCD by assuming that the short-distance production proceeds dominantly through its $\chi_{c1}'$ component in our…
If the $X(3872)$ is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, it can be produced in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation by the creation of $D^{*0} \bar D^{*0}$ from a virtual photon followed by the rescattering of the P-wave charm-meson pair into the $X$ and…
Measurements of the production cross sections of prompt ${\rm D^0}$, ${\rm D^+}$, ${\rm D^{\ast +}}$, ${\rm D_s^+}$, ${\rm \Lambda_{c}^{+}}$, and ${\rm \Xi_{c}^{+}}$ charm hadrons at midrapidity in proton$-$proton collisions at…
Momenta of charmonia created in Pb-Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider are so large that three or more mesons may be produced when the charmonia collide with light mesons in hadronic matter. We study the meson-charmonium collision in…
A systematic theoretical evaluation of the cross section for hadron production in electron-positron collisions in the energy range just below the $B$ meson threshold is presented which includes charm and bottom mass effects and is accurate…
Open charm production in proton-proton collisions represents an important tool to investigate some of the most fundamental aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics, from the partonic mechanisms of heavy-quark production to the process of…
We show the results obtained for the cross sections of the processes $\bar D D$, $\bar D^* D$, $\bar D^* D^*\to\pi X(3872)$, information which is necessary to determine the $X(3872)$ abundance in heavy ion collisions. Our formalism is based…
We report on measurements of differential cross sections d sigma/d p_t for prompt charm meson production in p anti-p collisions at s**(1/2) = 1.96 TeV using 5.8 +/- 0.3 pb-1 of data from the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The…
The production of $D^{*\pm}$, $D^\pm$ and $D_s^\pm$ charmed mesons has been measured with the ATLAS detector in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV at the LHC, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $280\,$nb$^{-1}$. The…
Hidden-charm exotic hadrons will be searched for and investigated at future electron-ion colliders. For instance, the $X(3872)$ can be produced through the exclusive process $\gamma p\to X(3872)p$. The vector meson dominance model has been…
We calculate the next-to-leading order cross section for the inclusive production of D^{*+-} mesons in p p-bar collisions as a function of the transverse momentum and the rapidity in two approaches using massive or massless charm quarks.…
The $p_{\rm T}$-differential production cross sections of the prompt (B feed-down subtracted) charmed mesons D$^0$, D$^+$, and D$^{*+}$ in the rapidity range $|y|<0.5$, and for transverse momentum $1< p_{\rm T} <12$ GeV/$c$, were measured…
