New results on jets and heavy flavor in heavy-ion collisions with ALICE

Abstract

The large statistics accumulated during the LHC Run-1 and Run-2 have provided the unique opportunity to study the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma using rare hard probes. The ALICE Collaboration has presented new results on the jet shape observables in p--Pb and Pb--Pb collision. Using data from Run-2, the elliptic flow of open and hidden charm mesons have been measured with much better precision, confirming that charm quarks participate in the collective dynamic expansion with the medium. In p--Pb collisions the absence of jet quenching correlated with high event activity has been confirmed by a self-normalized semi-inclusive hadron+jet measurement.
