The aim of this project is to study the properties of the QGP produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions (HIC) using heavy quarks - charm and beauty (c, b) - as penetrating probes. The heavy quarks (and correspondingly charm and beauty mesons) are considered to be one of the best probes for such a study since due to their large mass they are produced dominantly by hard processes during the...

The full space-time evolution of gluons, light and heavy quarks in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is studied within the partonic transport model Boltzmann Approach to MultiParton Scatterings (BAMPS). We discuss in detail for all flavors the influence of elastic and radiative energy loss with a running coupling. Radiative processes, in particular, are implemented through an improved...

Heavy quarks are expected to be created from initial hard scatterings. Due to their large masses, their production can be described by perturbative QCD. The charm production cross section measurement in $p+p$ collisions provides an important baseline to further exploring the QCD medium. At STAR, charm quarks are measured through Open Charm Mesons and Non-photonic Electrons (electrons from...

The measurement of heavy-flavour (charm and beauty) production in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is an important probe to study the properties of the high temperature and density medium created in such collisions. ...

D meson nuclear modification factor and v2 in Pb-Pb collisions
Elena Bruna (INFN Torino) for the ALICE Collaboration
The remarkable heavy-flavour results from RHIC and LHC show that heavy quarks are affected by the strongly coupled medium created in heavy-ion collisions at high energies. A way to characterize the properties of such a hot and dense medium is to quantify to what extent...

Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are an effective tool to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma in heavy ion collisions as they are produced in initial hard scattering processes and as they...
