The cross section for charmed meson production at root s = 4.03 and 4.14 Ge
V has been measured with the Beijing Spectrometer. The measurement was made
using 22.3 pb(-1) of e(+) e(-) data collected at 4.03 GeV and 1.5 pb(-1) o
f e(+) e(-) data collected at 4.14 GeV. Inclusive observed cross sections f
or the production of charged and neutral D mesons and momentum spectra are
presented. Observed cross sections were radiatively corrected to obtain tre
e level cross sections. Measurements of the total hadronic cross section ru
e obtained from the charmed meson cross section and an extrapolation of res
ults from below the charm threshold.
