Description
The early period of data taking at the LHC has been a very fruitful
time for studies of heavy flavor production. The four large
experiments - ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb - have all made interesting
measurements of charm and beauty production that are being compared to
state-of-the-art predictions. First observations of new heavy flavor
hadron decay modes are also emerging. I will review the status of
these heavy flavor production and spectroscopy results, highlighting
where we stand with respect to past measurements and predictions.
