Can the triple-parton scattering be observed in open charm meson production at the LHC?

We investigate whether the triple-parton scattering effects can be observed in open charm production in proton–proton collisions at the LHC. We use so-called factorized Ansatz for calculations of hard multiple-parton interactions. The numerical results for each parton interaction are obtained within...
