5. Quarkonium production in dilute and dense systems

01/11/2017, 09:55

The unprecedented collision energies at LHC allow for a detailed investigation of quarkonium production in pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions. Since the time scales between the production of heavy quarks and their hadronisation are well separated, quarkonia are a valuable messenger from the hot and dense matter which can be created in heavy-ion collisions. Recent results indicate that also...

17. Neutral pion and $\eta$ meson production in pp and p-Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC

The ALICE experiment is dedicated to study the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) which is expected to be formed in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. Measurements of hadron production in pp and p-Pb collisions are of importance to understand the properties of this hot and dense medium. In pp collisions, meson spectra serve as a reference for heavy-ion collisions and add...

4. Investigating the multiplicity dependence in pp, pA and AA with EPOS 3

Dr Benjamin Guiot (Universidad Federico Santa Maria)

EPOS3 is a minimum bias Monte-Carlo event generator used for Heavy Ion Collisions. It is successful in the description of particle spectra as well as flow-like observables and includes viscous hydrodynamics expansion, hadronic cascade, and heavy quark production.

In the beginning, we will present the general features of the model and show that multiple interactions play a central role for...

35. D meson nuclear modification factor and v_n harmonics in PbPb collisions at 5.02 TeV with CMS

The measurement of heavy flavour production is a powerful tool to study the properties of the high-density QCD medium created in heavy-ion collisions as heavy quarks are sensitive to the transport properties of the medium and may interact with the QCD matter differently from light quarks. In particular, the comparison between the nuclear modification factors (RAA) of light- and heavy-flavour...

41. Open beauty production and modifications in PbPb collisions at 5.02 TeV with CMS

Ta-Wei Wang (Massachusetts Inst. of Technology (US))

Beauty production and phenomena in heavy-ion collisions are considered to be one of the key measurements to address the flavour-dependence of in-medium energy loss in PbPb collisions at the LHC. The CMS experiment has excellent capabilities for measuring b-quark production thanks to the excellent performances of its muon and tracker system, allowing the measurement of J/$\Psi$ mesons from B...

7. Open heavy-flavour production in pp and p-Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC

Heavy-flavour quarks at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are produced during the initial stages in hard scatterings processes in pp and p–-Pb collisions. Due to their large masses, their production can be calculated with perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) and provide an essential baseline for the studies of heavy-flavour production in heavy-ion collisions. Measurements of heavy-flavour...
