Description
We present our last work (2108.06419) on D and B-meson production in the kt-factorization approach. One of our goals is to emphasize the importance of using the same scheme for UPDFs and matrix elements. Our calculations, based on 2->2 processes computed in a general-mass variable-flavor-number scheme, are compared to ALICE and LHCb data. Finally, we discuss how the 2->1 process could be consistently included in our calculations and the expected consequences of this implementation.
