Measurement of the production of charm jets tagged with D0 mesons in pp collisions at s = 7 $$ \sqrt{\mathrm{s}}=7 $$ TeV

Abstract The production of charm jets in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s = 7 $$ \sqrt{s}=7 $$ TeV was measured with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is based on a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 6.23 nb−1, collected using a minimum-bias trigger. Charm jets are identified by the presence of a D0 meson among their constituents. The D0 mesons are reconstructed from their hadronic decay D0 →K−π+. The D0-meson tagged jets are reconstructed using tracks of charged particles (track-based jets) with the anti-k T algorithm in the jet transverse momentum range 5 < p T , jet ch $$ 5
