Speaker: Prof. Ralf Rapp (Texas A&M University)Title: HEavy-Flavor TheorY for QCD MatterAbstract:The HEFTY collaboration has been created to describe, in a comprehensive way, the production, transport and hadronization of heavy-flavor particles in heavy-ion collisions, by bringing together state-of-the-art expertise on the various components needed to achieve that. In this talk we give a brief overview of the goals of this theory collaboration and present selected highlights of the activities thus far. We start from the implementation of recent constraints from lattice QCD into quantum many-body theory to evaluate quarkonium spectral functions, a determination of their poles through an analysis in the complex energy plane, as well as results for the closely related heavy-quark and -quarkonium transport coefficients in the strongly coupled QGP. We also discuss implementations into transport models for heavy-ion collisions, with first comparisons to experimental data from the LHC. |
