Heavy-flavour production in pp collisions and correlations in pp and p-Pb collisions measured with ALICE at the LHC

Published 27 Sep 2016 in hep-ex and nucl-ex | (1609.08309v2)

Abstract: Thanks to its excellent tracking and particle identification performance, the ALICE detector is capable of measuring D mesons at central rapidity via their hadronic decay channels down to very low transverse momentum. We show an extension of the prompt ${\rm D}0$ $p_{\rm T}$-differential cross section measurement down to zero transverse momentum, which allows us to determine the $p_{\rm T}$-integrated charm production cross section at central rapidity in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV. We also present measurements of azimuthal correlations of prompt ${\rm D}0$, ${\rm D}+$ and ${\rm D}{*+}$ mesons with charged hadrons in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV and p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\scriptscriptstyle \rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV and compare the results with expectations from models.
