We will present our newly developed DREENA framework - a numerical implementation of our dynamical energy loss formalism that allows generating predictions for a wide range of high pt observables, centralities, collision energies, different experiments and collision systems. To demonstrate its utility, we will first show that our postdictions agree well with a wide range of available high pt...

The production of low-mass dielectrons is the most promising tool for the understanding of the chiral symmetry restoration and of the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) created in heavy-ion collisions. At low invariant mass, the dielectron production is sensitive to the properties of vector mesons in the medium related to the chiral symmetry restoration. In the intermediate-mass...

Heavy flavour probes provide important information about the in-medium properties of the quark gluon plasma produced in heavy-ion collisions. In this work, we investigate the effects of (2+1)d event-by-event fluctuating hydrodynamic backgrounds on the nuclear suppression factor and momentum anisotropies of heavy flavour mesons and non-photonic electrons [1,2]. Using the state-of-the-art D and...

A rich set of open heavy flavour states is observed by LHCb in pPb collisions collected at 5 and 8.16 TeV nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies. Thanks to the LHCb forward acceptance that is complementary to general purpose detectors, heavy-flavor hadrons can be studied down to zero pT. Presented in this talk is the measurements of production of beauty hadrons and open charm states...

In hadronic collisions, beauty quarks are produced in hard scattering processes with large momentum transfer. Their production provides a very important test of perturbative QCD calculations in pp collisions. In heavy-ion collisions, the measurement of beauty-hadron production is a unique tool to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. In particular, beauty quarks, being four...

Quarkonium states produced in heavy-ion collisions serve as essential probes when studying the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). In particular, suppression of quarkonium production in the QGP medium due to the color screening effect has been proposed as a direct signature of the QGP formation. However, there are also other phenomena, such as cold nuclear matter effects and regeneration, which can also...

We present LHCb results on quarkonia production in proton-lead collisions, using the data collected in 2016 at 8.16 TeV nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy, in the forward region (pseudorapidity between 2 and 5), covering forward (pPb configuration) and backward (Pbp configuration) rapidities. Measurements include charmonia, where the prompt and from-b-decay components are disentangled, and...

J/$\psi$ production provides a particular sensitivity to the medium, which can be produced in heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies as delivered by the LHC. The vacuum production is modeled by a reference measured in proton-proton collisions and potential initial-state effects can be constrained using p-Pb collisions in the same collision-energy regime.
In this contribution...

Signatures of a strongly coupled system of deconfined quarks and gluons have been observed in high energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC facilities. A systematic measurement of quarkonia production has been carried out in these experiments and several theoretical models have been proposed to understand the measurements.
It has been argued that the hot QGP medium produced in the...

Heavy quarks are produced at the first instant of a nucleus-nucleus collision and therefore are an important tool to study the subsequent high energy-density medium formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. A series of experimental efforts for understanding the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), a medium consisting of a deconfined state of quarks and gluons, are based...

We derive a diffusion coefficient for heavy quarks in a strongly-coupled plasma using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Crucially, unlike some prior calculations, our novel diffusion coefficient does not increase with heavy quark velocity: instead, we find that the effect of momentum fluctuations smoothly interpolates between light and heavy flavours. Taking our diffusion coefficient derivation as...

A study of the production of J/psi mesons in conjunction with jets in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV is presented. The analysis is based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.1 fb−1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. For events with at least one reconstructed jet in the gluon-dominated central region |etajet| < 1, the angular separation between the J/psi meson and...

Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are produced in hard parton scatterings in the early stage of hadronic collisions. Therefore, they are ideal probes to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Measurements of heavy-flavour jets give a direct access to the initial parton kinematics and can provide constraints for heavy-quark...

The CMS Collaboration has a major detector upgrade plan during the long shutdown 3 (LS3) starting in 2019 to prepare the high-luminosity runs. It includes the new tracking system, the muon system, the electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters, and the trigger system. This upgrade will significantly enhance the physics performance of the CMS detector for not only proton-proton collisions, but...
