Heavy quarks, i.e. charm and beauty, are produced on a shorter time scale with respect to the strongly-interacting matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Therefore, they are unique probes to study the mechanisms of parton…

A slow $J/\psi$ bump exists in the inclusive $B\to J/\psi + X$ spectrum, while the softness of $J/\psi$ spectrum in $\Upsilon(1S) \to J/\psi + X$ decay is in strong contrast with expectations from color octet mechanism. We propose {\it…
Recent issues in heavy flavour physics are reviewed. Anomalies in charmonium, $B$, and $\Upsilon(5S)$ decays and production are highlighted. New results concerning exotic heavy quark states are also briefly reviewed.
Important goals of RHIC and LHC experiments with ion beams include the creation and study of new forms of matter, such as the Quark Gluon Plasma. Heavy quark production and attenuation will provide unique tomographic probes of that matter.…
