Charm production in fixed-target mode at LHCb

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

The first measurement of heavy-flavour production in a fixed-target mode at the LHC is presented. The production of J/ψ and D0 mesons is studied in collisions of protons with energies of 4 TeV and 6.5 TeV incident on helium and argon nuclei at rest, corresponding to nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energies of √sNN = 86.6 GeV and √sNN = 110.4 GeV, respectively.
