Description
Open charm production is a sensitive probe of both hot and cold nuclear
matter effects. Charm meson production provides strong constraints on nuclear
parton distributions, while charm baryon and strange charm hadron production
can be used to probe strangeness- and baryon-enhancing hot QCD effects, re-
spectively. The LHCb detector is designed to study heavy flavor hadrons at the
LHC, providing unique opportunities to study open charm production in heavy
ion collisions. In this contribution, recent LHCb results on open charm pro-
duction will be discussed, as well as their comparisons with recent theoretical
models.
