Heavy Flavor Production and Quarkonia
Oral
PHENIX has good quality measurements from Au+Au, Cu+Cu, p+p and d+Au collisions, and the analysis of data from Cu+Au and U+U collisions is nearing completion. The analysis of charmonium data from the 2008 d+Au run has recently been completed, and this talk will focus on what we have learned from the d+Au data about the mechanisms that modify charmonium production in a nucleus.
The d+Au...

ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is designed to study ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, where strongly interacting matter is produced and a phase transition to the Quark Gluon-Plasma (QGP) is expected. Quarkonia resonances are considered to be one of the most promising probes of the deconfined phase, since the heavy quark pairs are produced in the early stages of the collision...

The three Y states (1S, 2S, 3S) were measured separately using the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experimental apparatus via their dimuon decays in pp and pPb collisions, in the rapidity range |y|<1.9 in the centre-of-mass of the collision. The datasets used in the analysis correspond to recorded integrated luminosities of about 31/nb (pPb) and 5.1/pb (pp), collected in 2013 by the CMS experiment...

I discuss new results on the extraction of the heavy
quark anti-quark potential at non-zero temperature from lattice
QCD. Calculations have been performed using Highly Improved Staggered
Quark action on lattices with temporal extent Nt=6, 8 and 12. The potential is
extracted from the temporal Wilson loops,
largely extending the first preliminary calculations using
Nt=6 lattices [1]....

Due to the dynamical, real-time, nature of the phenomenon, the study of jet quenching via lattice QCD simulations is not straightforward. In this talk, however, it will be shown how it is possible to extract information about the momentum broadening of a hard parton moving in the quark-gluon plasma, from lattice simulations. After discussing the basic idea (originally proposed by Caron-Huot),...

We present recent progress with the CUJET pQCD jet tomographic model, which couples running coupling dynamic DGLV opacity series with 2+1D viscous hydro $(T,u^\mu)$ fields. We test the consistency of this model with recent RHIC and LHC data on the azimuthal and transverse dependence of $R_{AA\rightarrow h} (p_T, \phi, \sqrt{s}, b)$, the nuclear modification of light and heavy open flavor...

Heavy Flavor Production and Quarkonia
Oral
Studies of the production of heavy quarkonium states are very important to improve our understanding of QCD and hadron formation, given that the heavy quark masses allow the application of theoretical tools less sensitive to nonperturbative effects.
Thanks to a dedicated dimuon trigger strategy, combined with the record-level energy and luminosity provided by the LHC, the CMS experiment...

Heavy Flavor Production and Quarkonia
Oral
Non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) is commonly expected to describe the production of heavy quarkonium states in elementary collisions. It has been claimed to provide good descriptions of differential production cross sections of several quarkonia, while failing to reproduce the polarization measurements, a problem often attributed to the unreliability of the measurements. In this presentation we...

Heavy Flavor Production and Quarkonia
Oral
Charmonia are considered as a key observable for deconfinement in nucleus- nucleus (A-A) collisions at LHC energies. Measurements in proton-nucleus (p-A) collisions provide important information to investigate nuclear effects, which are commonly not attributed to the Quark-Gluon Plasma.
In ALICE, J/ψ production has been measured in proton-proton, p-A and A-A collisions down to pT = 0 GeV/c...
