Abstract (data abstract)
CERN-LHC. Prompt production of charmonium $\chi_{c0}$, $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c1}$ mesons is studied using proton-proton collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The $\chi_{c}$ mesons are identified through their decay to $J/\psi$ $\gamma$, with $J/\psi \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ using photons that converted in the detector. A data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 collected by the LHCb detector, is used to measure the relative prompt production rate of $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ in the rapidity range 2.0 < y < 4.5 as a function of the Jpsi transverse momentum from 3 to 20 GeV/c. First evidence for $\chi_{c0}$ meson production at a high-energy hadron collider is also presented.
