A random walk with heavy flavours

arXiv:1307.3027 · doi:10.1155/2013/136587

Abstract

We focus on evaluating transport coefficients like drag and diffusion of heavy quarks (HQ) passing through Quark Gluon Plasma using perturbative QCD (pQCD). Experimental observable like nuclear suppression factor (RAA) of HQ is evaluated for both zero and non-zero baryonic chemical potential (μ_B) scenarios using Fokker- Planck equation. Theoretical estimates of RAA are contrasted with experiments.
