abstract = {This thesis presents differential and total charm cross
section measurements at various centerof-mass energies in
$pp$ collisions. For the purpose of measuring the total
charm cross section,the D$^{∗+}$ differential cross
sections are measured at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7, 0.9 and 13 TeV in
the CMSdetector by covering the largest possible phase
space, resulting in the smallest extrapolation factor ever
introduced at the LHC. The measured fiducial cross sections
are extrapolated to thetotal cross section using a
data-driven parametrization which is introduced for the
first time tobe applied to all the weakly-decaying ground
states in $pp$ collisions with non-universal
charmfragmentation. Also adding other LHC measurements, the
total charm-pair cross sections aremeasured at $\sqrt{s}$ =
0.9, 5, 7, and 13 TeV to be 1.83$\substack{+0.35 \\
−0.37}$, 8.43$\substack{+1.055 \\ −1.16}$,
9.39$\substack{+1.35 \\ −1.49}$, and 17.43$\substack{+2.10
\\ −2.57}$ mb, respectively. These measurements supersede
all the earlier LHC measurements which werederived under the
fragmentation universality assumption, and show consistency
with NNLOQCD theory predictions. The measurement of the
total charm cross section as a function ofthe center-of-mass
energy can be used to constrain QCD parameters. The very
first exampleis shown to constrain the charm mass and the
parton distribution functions particularly in thelow-$x$
region.},
