Future experiments and upgrades

27. Heavy flavour measurements with ALICE in view of the inner tracker upgrade

The ALICE experiment at the LHC studies Pb-Pb and pp collisions with the aim of investigating the properties of the high-density state of strongly-interacting matter, expected to be produced in Pb-Pb collisions. Heavy quarks are sensitive probes to test the medium properties, since they are formed at shorter time scale with respect to the deconfined state. The present measurements of the...

The STAR have already reported on results in pp and AA on heavy flavor production. In order to perform high precision measurements of heavy flavor STAR has embarked on an upgrade program. The primary motivation for the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) is perform measurements of heavy quark collectivity and to separate bottom and charm quark energy loss in the QCD medium. This will be achieved by...

Future exp/upgrades

The PHENIX Collaboration is designing a new detector configuration (sPHENIX) to continue the studies of the recent discoveries at RHIC. The new detector will be based on a strong solenoid magnet with full azimuthal calorimetry and tracking coverage as well as displaced-vertex measurement capabilities. A new landmark of sQGP interaction, color screening and initial state effect studies can...
