Cold Nuclear Matter Effects on Open and Hidden Heavy Flavor Production at the LHC

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-08-07 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We discuss a number of cold nuclear matter effects that can modify open heavy flavor and quarkonium production in proton-nucleus collisions and could thus also affect their production in nucleus-nucleus collisions, in addition to hot quark-gluon plasma production. We show some results for p+p+Pb collisions at sqrt s = 5 TeV at the LHC.
