Scientific paper

HEMAS-DPM is a Monte Carlo for the simulation of very high energy cosmic ray showers, which includes the DPMJET-II code based on the two component Dual Parton Model. DPMJET-II provides also charm production in agreement with data and, for p exceeding 5 GeV/c, with perturbative Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) results in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions. In this respect, a new scheme has been considered for the inclusive production of D mesons at large p in hadronic collisions in the frame work of perturbative fragmentation functions, allowing an analysis at the Next to Leading Order (NLO) level which goes beyond the fixed O((alpha)s3) perturbative theory of open charm production. HEMAS-DPM has been applied to the calculation of the prompt muon component for E(mu)(>=)1 TeV in air showers considering the two extreme cases of primary protons and Fe nuclei.
