We consider the production of hadrons containing two charmed quarks in pp and ee collisions. We perform a numerical comparison of the fragmentation approach with the full calculation at . We conclude that the non-fragmentation contributions remain important up to transverse momenta as large as about 40 GeV, thus making questionable the applicability of the fragmentation approximation at smaller transverse momenta.
