A bstract The production of prompt D 0, D+, and D*+ mesons was measured at midrapidity (|
y|< 0.5) in Pb–Pb collisions at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon–nucleon pair\(\sqrt {s …

A bstract The p T-differential production cross sections of prompt and non-prompt (produced
in beauty-hadron decays) D mesons were measured by the ALICE experiment at midrapidity …

In recent years, machine learning has emerged as a powerful computational tool and novel
problem-solving perspective for physics, offering new avenues for studying strongly …

The LHCb Upgrade II will fully exploit the flavour-physics opportunities of the HL-LHC, and
study additional physics topics that take advantage of the forward acceptance of the LHCb …

The diffusion of heavy quarks through the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) as produced in high-
energy heavy-ion collisions has long been recognized as an excellent probe of its transport …

We present the first calculations of the heavy flavor diffusion coefficient using lattice QCD
with light dynamical quarks corresponding to a pion mass of around 320 MeV. For …
