Spectra and elliptic flow of charmed hadrons in HYDJET++ model

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

Heavy-flavour quarks are predominantly produced in hard scatterings on a short time-scale and traverse the medium interacting with its constituents, thus they are one of the effective probes of the transport properties of the medium formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. On the other hand, the thermal production of heavy-flavour quarks in quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is itself of interest. In this report, the production and elliptic flow of the prompt charmed mesons D0D^0, D+D^+, D∗+D^{*+} and J/ψJ/ψ in PbPb collisions at the center-of-mass energy 2.76 TeV per nucleon pair are described in the framework of two-component HYDJET++ model. The model combines thermal and pQCD production mechanisms. The spectra and elliptic flow of charmed mesons are presented, the results are compared with LHC data.
