Heavy flavor dynamics across system size at the LHC
Roland Katz, Caio A. G. Prado, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +1
One of the fundamental signatures of the Quark Gluon Plasma has been the suppression of heavy flavor (specifically D mesons), which has been measured via the nuclear modification f…
System size scan of D meson and using PbPb, XeXe, ArAr, and OO collisions at LHC
Roland Katz, Caio A. G. Prado, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +1
Experimental measurements indicate no suppression (e.g. ) but a surprisingly large D meson was measured in pPb collisions. In order to understand these r…
DAB-MOD sensitivity study of heavy flavor and azimuthal anisotropies based on beam energy, initial conditions, hadronization, and suppression mechanisms
Roland Katz, Caio A. G. Prado, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +2
Heavy flavor probes provide important information about the in-medium properties of the quark-gluon plasma produced in heavy-ion collisions. In this work, we investigate the effect…
Sensitivity of D meson azimuthal anisotropies to system size and nuclear structure
Roland Katz, Caio A. G. Prado, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +3
Recent experimental data at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) confirmed that the soft sector azimuthal anisotropies in central XeXe collisions are sensitive to deformations in the wa…
Heavy-flavor dynamics in event-by-event viscous hydrodynamic backgrounds
Roland Katz, Caio A. G. Prado, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +3
We investigate the effects of (2+1)d event-by-event fluctuating hydrodynamic backgrounds on the nuclear modification factor and momentum anisotropies of heavy-flavor mesons. Using…
