Production of charm and charmonium with the ATLAS detector at 7 TeV

We report on the observation of the charm mesons D*+-, D+- and Ds+-, and of the J/psi -> mu+mu- resonance in first data from the ATLAS detector in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The resultant signals support the high performance of the ATLAS detector as predicted from simulation and p...

Sumario:We report on the observation of the charm mesons D*+-, D+- and Ds+-, and of the J/psi -> mu+mu- resonance in first data from the ATLAS detector in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The resultant signals support the high performance of the ATLAS detector as predicted from simulation and prospects for future measurements in the charm and charmonium sector.
