Production cross-sections of prompt charm mesons are measured using data from pp collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 5TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 8.60±0.33pb−1 collected by the LHCb experiment. The production cross-sections of D0, D+, D+s, and D∗+ mesons are measured in bins of charm meson transverse momentum, pT, and rapidity, y. They cover the rapidity range 2.0<y<4.5 and transverse momentum ranges 0<pT<10GeV/c for D0 and D+ and 1<pT<10GeV/c for D+s and D∗+ mesons. The inclusive cross-sections for the four mesons, including charge-conjugate states, within the range of 1<pT<8GeV/c are determined to beσ(pp→D0X)=1190±3±64μbσ(pp→D+X)=456±3±34μbσ(pp→D+sX)=195±4±19μbσ(pp→D∗+X)=467±6±40μbwhere the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
