The color dipole formulation provides an intuitive picture of hard processes in high energy scattering. Most importantly, this approach allows one to calculate nuclear effects in a parameter-free way. I review the relation between the…
Heavy-quark production provides a sensitive probe of the gluon structure of nucleons and its modication in nuclei. It is also a key probe of the hot-dense matter created in heavy-ion collisions. We will discuss the physics issues involved,…
Gluon shadowing which is the main source of nuclear effects for production of heavy flavored hadrons, remains unknown. We develop a light-cone dipole approach aiming at simplifying the calculations of nuclear shadowing for heavy flavor…
We calculate the photoproduction of heavy quarks in proton-proton collisions at RHIC, Tevatron and LHC energies. The integrated cross section and the rapidity distributions for open charm and bottom production are computed employing sound…
I discuss mechanisms of heavy quark production in (real) photon-nucleon and (real) photon - (real) photon collisions. In particular, I focuse on application of the Saturation Model. In addition to the main dipole-nucleon or dipole-dipole…
We present results on rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of inclusive charm quark production in hadronic and heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies, including the next-to-leading order, $O(\alpha_s^3)$, radiative…
At high center of mass energies, hadroproduction of heavy quarks can be expressed in terms of the same color dipole cross section as low Bjorken-x deep inelastic scattering. We show analytically that at leading order, the dipole formulation…
These lectures present an overview of the current status of the QCD based phenomenology for open and hidden heavy flavor production at high energies. A unified description based on the light-cone color-dipole approach is employed in all…
Measurements of dilepton production from charm decay and Drell-Yan processes respectively probe the gluon and sea quark distributions in hadronic collisions. In nucleus-nucleus collisions, these hard scattering processes constitute a…
In this work we estimate the heavy quark production in proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions at LHC energies using the color dipole formalism and the solution of the running coupling Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. Nuclear effects are…
We study the production of heavy quarks, charm at BNL-RHIC ($\sqrt{s}$=200 GeV/nucleon) and CERN-LHC ($\sqrt{s}$=5.5 TeV/nucleon) and bottom at CERN-LHC from heavy ions colliding at relativistic energies. We consider initial fusion of…
Heavy quark production has been very well studied over the last years both theoretically and experimentally. Theory has been used to study heavy quark production in $e p$ collisions at HERA, in $pp$ collisions at Tevatron and at RHIC, in…
The effect of gluon shadowing on charm quark production in large impact parameter ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions is investigated. Charm production cross sections are calculated for a range of non-central impact parameters which can…
We discuss aspects of open and hidden charm production in deuterium-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We describe calculations of the total $c \bar c$ cross section and the charm quark transverse momentum distributions. We next…
We calculate the inclusive and diffractive photoproduction of heavy quarks in proton-proton collisions at Tevatron and LHC energies, where the photon reaches energies larger than those ones accessible at DESY-HERA. The integrated cross…

We discuss aspects of open and hidden charm production in hadron-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We first discuss the extraction of the total charm cross section in lower energy collisions and how it compares to next-to-leading…

We summarize the results of a recent study of heavy quark production and attenuation in cold nuclear matter. In p+p collisions, we investigate the relative contribution of partonic sub-processes to $D$ meson production and $D$…
The differential cross section of coherent photo-production of heavy quarkonia on nuclear targets is calculated within the QCD color dipole formalism. The higher-twist nuclear shadowing corresponding to the $\bar QQ$ Fock component of the…
