    Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are essential probes of the evolution of the medium created in heavy-ion collisions, because heavy-quark production in high-energy collisions occurs early compared to the formation time of the strongly-interacting partonic matter. To quantify medium effects in AA collisions, one needs to study pp collisions and p$-$A collisions as references. Apart from...

    ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is designed and optimised for the study of heavy-ion collisions. The main objective of the ALICE physics programme is to study the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), a strongly-interacting state of matter created at extremely high energy densities and temperatures in heavy-ion collisions. Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are well suited probes of the QCD matter...

    Relativistic heavy ions are a copious source of virtual photons, which allow to study the gamma$-$proton and gamma$-$gamma interactions in ultraperipheral collisions (UPC). The exclusive photoproduction of heavy vector mesons provide a clean probe of the gluon distribution at very small values of parton fractional momenta (Bjorken x) x$ \approx$$10^{-2}$ $10^{-4}$ at central rapidities ($|y| <...

    Open heavy-flavour hadrons are a powerful tool to investigate the properties of the medium created in high-energy nuclear collisions. The relatively large masses of heavy quarks, charm and beauty, ensure that they are predominantly produced in hard scattering processes during the early stages of the collision and experience the whole evolution of the system. The measurements of D-meson...
