The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.98 +/- 0.19 pb(-1) collected by the LHCb experiment. The production cross-sections of D-0, D+, D (s) (+) , and D*+ mesons are measured in bins of charm meson transverse momentum, p(T), and rapidity, y, and cover the range 0 < p(T) < 15GeV/c and 2.0 < y < 4.5. The inclusive cross-sections for the four mesons, including charge conjugation, within the range of 1 < p(T) < 8 GeV/c are found to be sigma(pp -> D-0 X) = 2460 +/- 3 +/- 130 $\mu$b sigma(pp -> D+ X) = 1000 +/- 3 +/- 110 $\mu$b sigma(pp -> Ds+X) = 460 +/- 13 +/- 100 $\mu$b sigma(pp -> D*+ X) = 880 +/- 5 +/- 140 $\mu$b where the uncertainties are due to statistical and systematic uncertainties, respectively.", optnote="WOS:000373137700001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2606), last updated on Thu, 28 Jul 2016 11:42:15 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP03(2016)159", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1510.01707", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP03(2016)159", language="English" }
