Abstract Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP), a QCD state of matter created in ultra-relativistic
heavy-ion collisions, has remarkable properties including, for example, a low shear viscosity …

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 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 …

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 report on broadly based systematic investigations of the modeling components for open
heavy-flavor diffusion and energy loss in strongly interacting matter in their application to …

We review results from lattice QCD calculations on the thermodynamics of strong-interaction
matter with emphasis on input these calculations can provide to the exploration of the phase …

A linearized Boltzmann transport (LBT) model coupled with hydrodynamical background is
established to describe the evolution of jet shower partons and medium excitations in high …

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 …

Employing nonperturbative transport coefficients for heavy-flavor (HF) diffusion through
quark–gluon plasma (QGP), hadronization and hadronic matter, we compute D-and B …

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 …
