Evolution of heavy quark distribution function in quark-gluon plasma: using the Iterative Laplace Transform Method

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-07-07 v2 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

The "Iterative Laplace Transform Method" is used to solve the Fokker-Planck equation for finding the time evolution of the heavy quarks distribution functions such as charm and bottom in quark gluon plasma. These solutions will lead us to calculation of nuclear suppression factor RAA. The results have good agreement with available experiment data from the PHENIX collaboration.
