We present novel predictions for high-$p_T$ heavy flavour $D$ and $B$ meson suppression in $p + p$, $p + A$, $d + A$ and $A + A$ collisions at RHIC and the LHC. These predictions are made using a one-parameter convolved elastic and radiative energy loss model, which receives small system size corrections to both the elastic and radiative energy loss. We simultaneously predict the observed...

The general intuition that heavier partons suffer weaker energy loss inside a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium is critically re-examined. Within a linear Boltzmann transport model that includes both Yukawa and string types of interactions between heavy quarks and the QGP, we find that while the radiative energy loss is suppressed by the parton mass, heavier partons can experience stronger...

Heavy baryon production in pp, pA, and AA collisions from RHIC to top LHC energies presents a challenge for the theoretical understanding of heavy-quark hadronization. An hybrid approach of coalescence plus fragmentation has been successful in accurately predicting the large baryon-to-meson ratio $\Lambda_c/D^0\sim O(1)$ observed in both AA collisions at RHIC and LHC [1], as well as in pp...

Charm-baryon production measurements in proton-proton (pp) collisions at the LHC are fundamental to investigate the charm-quark hadronisation, and to test perturbative QCD-based calculations. Measurements in pp collisions showed baryon-to-meson ratios significantly higher than those in $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ collisions, suggesting that the hadronisation of charm quarks is not universal across...

The exclusive decay channels $\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{s}}^{0}\to \mathrm{J}/\psi \phi$ and $\mathrm{B}^{+}\to\mathrm{J}/\psi K^{+}$ are investigated. The differential cross sections of $\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{s}}^{0}$ and $\mathrm{B}^+$ mesons as a function of their transverse momenta ($p_\mathrm{T}$) in proton-proton collisions at 5.02 TeV are well-described by fixed-order plus next-to-leading...

The measurement of open charm meson production provides a tool for the investigation of the properties of the hot and dense matter created in nucleus-nucleus collisions at relativistic energies. In particular, charm mesons are of vivid interest in the context of the study of the nature of the phase-transition between confined hadronic matter and the quark-gluon plasma. Recently, the...

Production measurements of strange hadrons originating from the hadronisation of charm quarks (prompt) and from beauty-hadron decays (non-prompt) offer a unique tool to study the heavy-quark hadronisation across different collision systems. In proton-proton (pp) and p–Pb collisions, they enable quantifying the fragmentation of heavy quarks to strange heavy-flavour hadrons relative to that of...

The LHCb experiment is a dedicated heavy-flavor experiment at the LHC and is uniquely well-suited to studying heavy-flavor production in heavy-ion collisions. Open heavy-flavor production studies at LHCb provide strong constraints on nuclear parton densities and probe the hadronization process in the hot, dense, nuclear media produced in heavy-ion collisions. Recent measurements of...

We study the potential of X(3872) at finite temperature in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation under the assumption that it is a tetraquark. We argue that, at large number of colors, it is a good approximation to assume that the potential consists in a real part plus a constant imaginary term. The real part is then computed adapting an approach by Rothkopf and Lafferty and using as input...

The quenching of light and heavy flavor hadrons in relativistic heavy-ion collisions probes the color and flavor dependences of parton energy loss through a color-deconfined quark-gluon plasma (QGP), and thus offers an important test of QCD-based calculation at extremely high density and temperature. By combining a next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculation of parton production, a...

Quarkonium is considered as a probe, which may expose properties of the expanding QGP, produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The theoretical description of the formation and the propagation of such a bound state of $c\bar c$ or $b\bar b$ quark-antiquark pairs is a challenging task.
Here we propose a model, which realizes quarkonium production in pp and AA collisions with...

Being able to deal with the most acurate methods to describe the $Q\bar Q$ evolution in a Quark Gluon Plasma is a prerequisite to match the precise quarkonium measurements of all URHIC experiments. Following our recent work [1], we present exact numerical solutions in a one-dimensional setting of quantum master equations previously derived in [2].
We focus on the dynamics of a single...

The first observation of the simultaneous production of two $\rm{J}/\psi$ mesons in proton-nucleus collisions will be presented. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 8.16 TeV by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 174.6 $\rm{nb}^{-1}$. The $\rm{J}/\psi$ mesons are reconstructed in their...

Quarkonium production in high-energy hadronic collisions is sensitive to both perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations. In fact, the production of the heavy-quark pair is described by perturbative QCD while the formation of the bound state is a non-perturbative process, treated in different ways by available theoretical models. Charmonia cross...

One of the fundamental aspects of the formation and interaction of heavy quark bound states in the quark-gluon plasma is the amount of their suppression, expected to be stronger for quarkonia with smaller binding energies. Indeed, past results show a significant suppression of $\Upsilon\mathrm{(1S)}$ mesons in heavy ion collisions, with $\Upsilon\mathrm{(2S)}$ mesons being even more...

Quarkonia production in hadronic collisions is an important experimental observable that sheds light on the heavy quark interaction with the nuclear medium. While the bound quarkonium states undergo dissociation and recombination in PbPb collisions, in $p$Pb collisions they can suffer from a combination of initial and final state effects such as shadowing and comover breakup. With high...

Heavy quarks act as effective probes in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, being generated during the initial phases of the collision event. The accurate modeling of quark-gluon plasma evolution relies on a profound understanding of dynamics in the collision's early phase. We model relativistic heavy-ion collisions at LHC energy with a hybrid dynamical approach consisting of a fluctuating...

Pranjal Verma04/06/2024 16:50Heavy-Flavours & QuarkoniaTalk
In ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) involving relativistic heavy ions, the production of heavy-flavor coherent vector mesons through photon-nuclear interactions is a key focus due to its direct sensitivity to the nuclear gluon density. Experimental measurements, however, face a two-way ambiguity as each of the symmetric UPC nuclei can act as both a photon-emitter projectile and a target. This...

Heavy quarks are produced in hard partonic scatterings at the very early stage of heavy-ion collisions and experience the whole evolution of the Quark-Gluon Plasma medium. Femtoscopic correlations, i.e. two-particle correlations at low relative momentum, are sensitive to the final-state interactions and to the space-time extent of the region from which the correlated particles are emitted. A...

The large masses of charm hadrons make them exceptional probes of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), providing quantitative insights into its high-density and temperature phase through their production and interaction in the nuclear medium. Charm hadron production in heavy ion collisions is influenced by several mechanisms, including energy loss, dissociation, and recombination processes....

Soumik Chandra04/06/2024 17:50Heavy-Flavours & QuarkoniaTalk
Since charm quarks are massive, they are dominantly produced in the early stage of a collision. In heavy ion collisions, they propagate through the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and provide important information about the initial stages of the collision, and the properties of the QGP medium. The interaction between heavy quarks and the QGP affects the hadronization of heavy quarks and their...

The Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) produced in heavy-ion collisions can be studied using hard probes, such as $D^0$-meson tagged jets created at the initial collision stage. The jet yield, shape, and its sub-structure get modified due to interactions with the medium compared with its vacuum propagation. This phenomenon is known as jet quenching.
The transverse momentum ($p_{\text{T}}$) fraction...

Fragmentation functions, which describe the fraction of the heavy-quark momentum carried by the heavy-flavour hadron, are one of the key components of the factorisation theorem used to calculate heavy-flavour hadron production cross-sections. Such functions are typically parametrised exploiting measurements performed in $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ and $\mathrm{e^-p}$ collisions, under the assumption of...

Quasi-Particle Model (QPM) allows for a good description of the main features of lattice QCD (lQCD) thermodynamics and for charm quark supplies a satisfying description of $R_{AA}(p_T)$ and $v_2(p_T)$ of D mesons[1,2]. Within an event-by-event full Boltzmann transport approach followed by a hybrid hadronization via coalescence plus fragmentation, we investigate the extension to bottom quark...

Measurements of elliptic flow ($v_2$) of light and heavy flavor particles can provide key insight into the transport properties and collective behavior of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). The PHENIX experiment at RHIC has a unique coverage at forward rapidity ($1.2\leq|\eta|\leq2.2$), and large muon datasets collected during the 2014 and 2016 runs, allowing for statistically significant heavy...

Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions generate a powerful electromagnetic field that produces photonuclear reactions. These processes have been extensively studied in ultraperipheral collisions, in which the impact parameter is larger than twice the nuclear radius. Recently, coherent $J/\psi$ photoproduction has been observed in nucleus–nucleus (A–A) collisions with nuclear overlap, based on...

Measurements of the production of open heavy-flavour hadrons and their semileptonic decays in high-energy heavy-ion collisions give unique access to the transport properties of heavy quarks (charm and beauty) in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). This includes their mass-dependent in-medium energy loss, their degree of thermalisation and their in-medium hadronisation mechanisms. Charm and beauty...

The strong magnetic field created in high energy nuclear collisions will affect the dynamical processes in the QCD medium, especially the heavy quark production that happens in the initial stage of the collisions. In this talk, I will discuss the heavy quark production cross section for the elementary process $gg\to Q\bar Q$ at leading order and the corresponding transverse momentum...
