This work presents the latest results on open heavy-flavour production in proton-proton, proton-lead, lead-lead and xenon-xenon collisions from the ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb Collaborations at the LHC.
The Tevatron heavy flavor physics program is in full swing. The rapid increase in the size of data samples is allowing significant improvements of previous results, and opens the doors to new possibilities. A further doubling of the current…
The measurements of b quark, quarkonium and exotic state production performed with the ATLAS and CMS experiments at sqrt(s)=7 TeV are presented. The b-quark production cross section is measured both in inclusive and fully reconstructed B…
Flavour physics has a long tradition of paving the way for direct discoveries of new particles and interactions. Results over the last decade have placed stringent bounds on the parameter space of physics beyond the Standard Model. Early…
Nuclear suppression of charmonium production in proton-nucleus interactions is poorly understood, what restrains our attempts to single out unusual effects in heavy ion collisions. We develop a phenomenological approach, based on the…
The phenomenology of heavy quarkonia production in hadron collisions is reviewed. The theoretical predictions are compared to data. Commonly used production models are shown to fail in explaining all the experimental findings. The…
In recent years there has been impressive progress in quark flavour physics, with current efforts tackling complicated quantities such as for example inclusive decays, decays to QCD-unstable final states and radiative decays. At the same…
In this paper we discuss the single diffractive production of open heavy flavor mesons and non-prompt charmonia in $pp$ collisions. Using the color dipole approach, we found that the single diffractive production constitutes 0.5-2 per cent…
Heavy flavour physics is well described by the Standard Model with the exception of some measurements which could be pointing to new physics. We briefly review status and prospects of $R(D^{(\ast)})$ and $R(K^{(\ast)})$ anomalies and also…
Heavy flavour production like $J/\psi$ and $D$- meson production in scattering of electrons/unpolarized protons off polarized proton target offer promising probes to investigate gluon Sivers function. In this talk, I will summarize our…
Transport calculations represent the major tool to simulate the modifications induced by the presence of a hot-deconfined medium on the production of heavy-flavour particles in high-energy nuclear collisions. After a brief description of…

Flavour physics represents one of the most interesting and, at the same time, less understood sector of the Standard Theory. On the one hand, the peculiar pattern of quark and lepton masses, and their mixing angles, may be the clue to some…
We introduce a novel realization of the open heavy-flavour hadroproduction in general-mass variable flavour number scheme at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The principal novelty with respect to the earlier works is in the…
An overview of recent physics results from the H1 collaboration is given. The covered areas are: rare processes and searches for new physics, structure functions and inclusive measurements, heavy flavour production, QCD and hadronic final…
Recent results on heavy flavor production at HERA are presented. New measurements of charm production are available in the region of $ Q^2 <$ 1000 GeV$^2$ for $D^*$ and in the photoproduction limit, $Q^2\to 0$, for $D_s$. The results are…
We address known discrepancies between the heavy flavor properties of jets produced at the Tevatron collider and the prediction of conventional-QCD simulations. In this study, we entertain the possibility that these effects are real and due…
Processes involving heavy quarks in associated production, are usually described in two factorisation schemes: one in which the heavy quark is treated as an infinitely massive object, decoupled from QCD evolution, and one in which it is…
We review the Spring 2022 status of the current $B$ anomalies and their possible interpretation in terms of New Phsyics. We also discuss the discovery potential of targeted LHC and future collider searches for the underlying new particles…
