This thesis aims to investigate possible correlations between charm production and baryon production in proton-proton collisions through three-particle correlations. The question attempted to be answered is where, for a given charmed baryon, the balancing anti-charm particle and balancing anti-baryon are located. The relative azimuthal angle ∆φ and pseudorapidity ∆η between the trigger charmed bar
