Heavy-flavour jet production and correlations with ALICE

Abstract

This contribution focuses on the latest studies of heavy-flavour jets performed with the ALICE detector. The measurements of the jet momentum fraction carried by the D meson in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=5.02$ TeV and $13\mathrm{TeV}$ will be presented. The comparison to POWHEG+PYTHIA will be shown. Moreover, the first measurement at the LHC of the jet-momentum fraction carried by the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_{\mathrm{c}}^{+}$ baryon in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13\mathrm{TeV}$ will be reported. Production of heavy-flavour jets in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=5.02\mathrm{TeV}$ will be also addressed with charged jets tagged by heavy-flavour hadron decay electrons and beauty-hadron decay vertices. The nuclear modification factor of heavy-flavour tagged jets in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.02\mathrm{TeV}$ will be presented.
