Description

The study of beauty production in heavy-ion collisions is considered one of the key measurement to address the flavour-dependence of in-medium energy loss in PbPb collisions. In pPb collisions, studies of b-quark production can also provide insights into the relevance of cold nuclear matter effects in the heavy-flavour sector. The CMS experiment has excellent capabilities for measuring b-quark production thanks to the excellent performances of its muon and tracker system. In this talk, we will present the measurement of fully reconstructed B mesons in pPb collisions at 5.02 TeV as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity. The measurement of nuclear modification factor of $J/\psi$ produced in B meson decays as a function of transverse momentum and centrality will also discussed. The measurement of fully reconstructed B meson in PbPb collisions at 2.76 TeV and prospective for the Run II analysis at 5 TeV will be presented.
