This report reviews the study of open heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in high-
energy hadronic collisions, as tools to investigate fundamental aspects of Quantum …

A hot, dense medium called a quark gluon plasma (QGP) is created in ultrarelativistic heavy
ion collisions. Early in the collision, hard parton scatterings generate high momentum …

Heavy ion collision experiments recreating the quark-gluon plasma that filled the nascent
universe have established that it is a nearly perfect liquid that flows with such minimal …

A bstract The production of prompt charmed mesons D 0, D+ and D∗+, and their
antiparticles, was measured with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at the centre-of …

Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) is well-established as the gauge theory of strong
interactions. However, several of its fundamental aspects are not well-understood at present …

A bstract The production of the prompt charm mesons D 0, D+, D*+, and their antiparticles,
was measured with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC, at a centre-of-mass …

Abstract Ultra-relativistic Heavy-Ion Collision (HIC) generates very strong initial magnetic
field (B→) inducing a vorticity in the reaction plane. The high B→ influences the evolution …

We review the experimental and theoretical status of open heavy-flavor (HF) production in
high-energy nuclear collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large …

The PHENIX experiment at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has measured
J/ψ production for rapidities-2.2< y< 2.2 in Au+ Au collisions at s NN= 200 GeV. The J/ψ …

The ultrarelativistic heavy-ion programs at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large
Hadron Collider have entered an era of quantitative analysis of quantum chromodynamics …
