摘要:The inclusive production of D(2010) mesons in deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA is measured in the kinematic region of photon virtuality 100 GeV2 < Q2 < 1000 GeV2 and inelasticity 0:02 < y < 0:7. Single and double differential cross sections for inclusive D meson production are measured in the visible range dened by jh(D)j < 1:5 and pt (D) > 1:5GeV. The data were collected by the H1 experiment during the period from 2004 to 2007 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 351pb1. The charm contribution, Fc ¯ c 2 , to the proton structure function F2 is determined. The measurements are compared with QCD predictions.
