Description
I will present recent results on heavy-quark quenching, elliptic flow and azimuthal correlations in proton-proton and nucleus-nucleus collisions at LHC energies.
We simulate the c-cbar and b-bbar pair initial creation with a perturbative QCD approach (POWHEG+PYTHIA).
Successively we study the propagation of the heavy quarks in the plasma with the relativistic Langevin equation, by using transport coefficients computed with perturbative-QCD and HTL approximation.
Successively, the heavy quarks hadronize in the medium.
We compute the nuclear modification ratio R_{AA} and v_2 of the final D mesons, as well as D-h correlations and compare our results to experimental data of ALICE and CMS Collaborations.
