Abstract
Inclusive photoproduction of D(+/-) mesons has been measured for phot on-proton centre-of-mass energies in the range 130 < W < 280GeV and ph oton virtuality Q(2) < 1 GeV2. The data sample used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 37 pb(-1). Total and differential cross secti ons as functions of the D transverse momentum and pseudorapidity are presented in restricted kinematical regions and the data are compared with next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD calculations using t he ''massive charm'' and ''massless charm'' schemes. The measured cros s sections are generally above the NLO calculations, in particular in the forward (proton) direction. The large data sample also allows the study of dijet production associated with charm. A significant resolve d as well as a direct photon component contribute to the cross section . Leading order QCD Monte Carlo calculations indicate that the resolve d contribution arises from a significant charm component in the photon . A massive charm NLO parton level calculation yields lower cross sect ions compared to the measured results in a kinematic region where the resolved photon contribution is significant.
