   Abstract:
   Measurements of the production cross sections of prompt D⁰, D⁺, D^*+, Ds⁺, Λc⁺, and Ξc⁺ charm hadrons at midrapidity in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV with the ALICE detector are presented. The D-meson cross sections as a function of transverse momentum (pT) are provided with improved precision and granularity. The ratios of pT-differential meson production cross sections based on this publication and on measurements at different rapidity and collision energy provide a constraint on gluon parton distribution functions at low values of Bjorken-x (10⁻⁵–10⁻⁴). The measurements of Λc⁺ (Ξc⁺) baryon production extend the measured pT intervals down to pT = 0(3) GeV/c. These measurements are used to determine the charm-quark fragmentation fractions and the cc¯ production cross section at midrapidity (|y| < 0.5) based on the sum of the cross sections of the weakly-decaying ground-state charm hadrons D⁰, D⁺, Ds⁺, Λc⁺, Ξc⁰ and, for the first time, Ξc⁺, and of the strongly-decaying J/ψ mesons. The first measurements of Ξc⁺ and Σc^0,++ fragmentation fractions at midrapidity are also reported. A significantly larger fraction of charm quarks hadronising to baryons is found compared to e⁺e⁻ and ep collisions. The cc¯ production cross section at midrapidity is found to be at the upper bound of state-of-the-art perturbative QCD calculations.
