All aymmetrie are meaured a a function of p and y (or η in the D +, B and B cae of the involved hadron, in order to check if there i a dependence on kinematic.. Introduction he production rate of b(c- and b( c-hadron in pp colliion at the LHC are not expected to be identical. hi phenomenon, commonly referred to a production aymmetry, i related to the fact that the b( c quark produced in the hard cattering of the two colliding proton could coalece with a u or d pectator quark in the proton remnant, wherea the oppoite i not poible for a b(c quark. Some theoretical model alo predict an enhancement of thi effect in the forward region, where the produced b b(c c pair i cloer to the remnant of the colliding proton; finally, there are alo prediction of other effect coming into play at high tranvere momentum [],[2],[3]. he determination of production aymmetrie i very important, ince in CP violation meaurement one need to dientagle the phyical aymmetry from other puriou effect, that could reemble the effect of CP violation. he production aymmetrie of D +, D +, B and B meon are defined a (B ( = σ(b ( σ(b ( σ(b ( + σ(b (, (D + ( = σ(d + ( σ(d ( σ(d + ( + ( σ(d (, where σ tand for the production cro ection. he production and decay aymmetry for the Λ b J/ψpK mode can be written a +D (Λ b = σ(λ b σ(λ b σ(λ b + σ(λ b + A CP (Λ b J/ψpK (2 Content from thi work may be ued under the term of the Creative Common Attribution 3. licence.

D + production aymmetry he D + production aymmetry [4] can be written a the um of it variou contribution (D + = A RAW (D + φπ + A CP (D + φπ + A D (π + + A D (K + K, (3 where A RAW (D + φπ + i defined a the difference between D + and D ignal yield divided by their um. he CP aymmetry in the decay i neglected, a thi mode i Cabibbo favoured and no ignificant CP violation i expected [5],[6]. A the final tate i ymmetric with repect to charge of the kaon, the detection aymmetry of the kaon pair, A D (K + K, i zero. Hence the only correction that need to be applied i due to the π ± detection aymmetry. hi latter quantity can be derived by taking the ratio of the pion detection efficiencie ε(π + /ε(π. In order to meaure the pion efficiencie, the decay equence D + π + D (K π + π + π i employed. Auming that the D + come from the primary vertex, there are enough contraint to allow for the detection of thi decay even if one pion from the D decay i mied. One can alo fully recontruct thi decay, if no charged track i mied. he ratio of fully to partially recontructed D decay give a meaurement of the pion detection efficiency. he ignal yield i obtained performing binned maximum likelihood fit to the invariant ma pectrum. he ignal model employed i compoed of triple Gauian where all parameter are free to vary, except that two of the three Gauian that are required to have a common mean. he background i parameteried by mean of a econd order polynomial. he overall production aymmetry in the range 2. < y < 4.5 and p > 2 GeV i (D + = (.33 ±.22 ±.% where the firt error i tatitical and the econd ytematic. he production aymmetry a a function of y and p of the D + meon i hown in Figure.
