80. Measurements of the suppression and anisotropy of heavy-flavour particles in Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 2.76 TeV with ALICE

Heavy quarks, i.e. charm and beauty, are formed on a shorter time scale with respect to the strongly-interacting matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Therefore, they are sensitive probes to study the mechanisms of parton energy loss, hadronisation and thermalization in the hot and dense state of matter.

The heavy-flavour nuclear modification factor ($R_{\rm AA}$) and the...

193. Measurement of the suppression and v_{n} of heavy flavor muons in lead-lead collisions with the ATLAS detector

ATLAS has measured the production of heavy flavor muons in 2.76 TeV pp and Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. The measurements are performed over the transverse momentum range 4 < pT < 14 GeV and for five Pb+Pb centrality intervals. Backgrounds arising from in-flight pion and kaon decays, hadronic showers, and mis-reconstructed muons are statistically removed using a template fitting procedure....

126. Nonperturbative Approach to Open Heavy Flavor in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Min He (Nanjing University of Sci. & Tech.)

We evaluate open heavy-flavor (HF) transport in relativistic heavy-ion
collisions utilizing a strong-coupling treatment for both macro- and
micro-dynamics of the problem [1]. The former is realized through a
hydrodynamic evolution quantitatively constrained by bulk-hadron spectra
and elliptic flow. The HF transport is based on non-perturbative $T$-matrix
calculations of heavy-light parton...

81. Measurements of electrons from semi-leptonic heavy flavor decays in p+p and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV at STAR

Heavy quarks are predominantly produced at early stages of high-energy heavy-ion collisions due to their large masses, and thus experience the whole evolution of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Studies of interactions between heavy quarks and the QGP can provide new insights to the properties of the QGP. Heavy quark production measured in p+p collisions serves as a baseline to similar...

38. Heavy Quark Diffusion Dynamics in Quark-Gluon Plasma under Strong Magnetic Fields

Koichi Hattori (Fudan University; RIKEN-BNL Research Center)

24/09/2016, 17:20

We discuss heavy-quark dynamics in the quark-gluon plasma under a strong magnetic field induced by colliding nuclei. By the use of the diagrammatic resummation techniques for Hard Thermal Loop and the external magnetic field, we show analytic results of heavy-quark diffusion constant and drag force which become anisotropic due to the preferred spatial orientation in the magnetic field. We...
