Extraction of Heavy-Flavor Transport Coefficients in QCD Matter
read the original abstract
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 heavy-flavor observables in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, conducted within an EMMI Rapid Reaction Task Force framework. Initial spectra including cold-nuclear-matter effects, a wide variety of space-time evolution models, heavy-flavor transport coefficients, and hadronization mechanisms are scrutinized in an effort to quantify pertinent uncertainties in the calculations of nuclear modification factors and elliptic flow of open heavy-flavor particles in nuclear collisions. We develop procedures for error assessments and criteria for common model components to improve quantitative estimates for the (low-momentum) heavy-flavor diffusion coefficient as a long-wavelength characteristic of QCD matter as a function of temperature, and for energy loss coefficients of high-momentum heavy-flavor particles.

Heavy Quark Transport is Non-Gaussian Beyond Leading Log
Heavy-quark momentum transfer beyond leading logarithm in weak-coupling plasmas is non-Gaussian with asymmetric exponential tails, matching the structure seen in strongly coupled holographic plasmas.

Anisotropic drag force in finite-density QGP from charged rotating 5D black holes
The drag force on a heavy quark in a rotating finite-density holographic plasma is purely tangential and anisotropic, with worldsheet regularity fixing the renormalised transverse force and selecting a co-rotating equ...

Bayesian Inference of Heavy-Quark Dissipation and Jet Transport Parameters from D-Meson observables in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC energies
First simultaneous Bayesian extraction of 2πT D_s and q-hat/T^3 from D-meson R_AA and v2 at 5.02 TeV, yielding a non-monotonic temperature dependence in their ratio that deviates from the expected value of 2.
