Description
LHCb has the unique capability to study collisions of the LHC beams on
fixed targets. Internal gas targets of helium, neon and argon have been
used so far. First final results and prospects on open and hidden charm
productions will be presented, which can provide crucial constraints on
cold nuclear matter effects and nPDF at large x. These measurements,
together with production of antiprotons and other light hadrons, are of
great interest to cosmic ray physics as well.
