✦ Synopsis

Charm production cross-sections estimated from data obtained in the "Pamir" and other cosmic ray experiments are compared with accelerator data. The strong increase of the charm production cross-section with energy, essential for the explanation of cosmic ray data, is analyzed from a theoretical point of view.
