Energy-loss of heavy quarks in the isotropic collisional hot QCD medium at a finite chemical potential

The present article is the followup of {\color{blue} Eur.\ Phys.\ J.\ C {\bf 79}, 761 (2019)}, where we have studied the energy-loss of the heavy quarks traversing through the isotropic collisional hot QCD medium. Since, the exploration of QCD phase diagram is possible with the upcoming experimental facilities such as Anti-proton and Ion Research (FAIR) and Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA), at finite baryon density and moderate temperature, the inclusion of finite chemical potential is essential to study the hot QCD/QGP medium. Therefore, the aim is to develop a formalism to study the energy-loss of heavy quarks moving in the interacting collisional hot QCD medium having small but a finite quark chemical potential. To do so, the extended effective fugacity quasi-particle model has been employed \cite{chandra_quasi1, chandra_quasi2, Mitra:2017sjo} while considering the effective kinetic theory approach using the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) collisional kernel. Finally, the momentum dependence of the energy-loss for the charm and bottom quark has been investigated at different values of collisions frequency and chemical potential. It is observed that as compared to charm quark, bottom quark loses less energy at a particular momentum, collisional frequency and chemical potential. Also, the energy-loss is seen to decrease with increasing chemical potential.
