The asymmetry in the production cross-section σ of D ± mesons, σ D − , is measured in bins of pseudorapidity η and transverse momentum p T within the acceptance of the LHCb detector. The result is obtained with a sample of D + → K 0S π + decays corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb − 1 , collected in pp collisions at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. When integrated over the kinematic range 2 . 0 < p T < 18 . 0 GeV / c and 2 . 20 < η < 4 . 75, the production asymmetry is A P = ( − 0 . 96 ± 0 . 26 ± 0 . 18 ) %. The uncertainties quoted are statistical and systematic, respectively. The result assumes that any direct CP violation in the D + → K 0S π + decay is negligible. No significant dependence on η or p T is observed. © 2012 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
