Quarkonia are important probe for diagnosing and characterizing the quark-gluon plasma since they are produced at early stage and propagate through the medium. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the LHC is powerful to measure muon pairs from quarkonia in the high-multiplicity environment of nucleus-nucleus collisions. During the 2011 heavy-ion run period, CMS has recorded about 150...

We study properties of the quark-gluon plasma from sequential
melting of quarkonia in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC.
A quarkonium travels through the quark gluon fluid and dissociates when
temperature is larger than dissociation temperature which varies among
quarkonium species. Dynamics of the quark gluon fluid is described by
relaticistic hydrodynamics with the latest equation of...

ALICE is the dedicated heavy-ion experiment at the LHC. Its main physics goal is to study the properties of strongly-interacting matter at conditions of high energy density and high temperature expected to be reached in central Pb–Pb collisions. Charm and beauty quarks are well-suited tools to investigate this state of matter since they are produced in initial hard scatterings and are...

Heavy-flavor particles are considered as one of the promising probes to investigate the properties of the high-density medium produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The study of the suppression of the heavy-flavor production via the nuclear modification factor is used to investigate the energy loss mechanism of heavy quarks in the medium. The measurement of the collective flow of...
