Description
We discuss the origin of the asymmetry present in $D$ meson production and its energy dependence.
In particular, we have applied the meson cloud model to calculate the asymmetries in $D^-/D^+$ meson production in
high energy $p-p$ collisions and find a good agreement with recent LHCb data.
Although small, this non-vanishing asymmetry may shed light on the role played by the charm meson cloud
of the proton.
