The diffusion of heavy quarks through the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) as produced in high-
energy heavy-ion collisions has long been recognized as an excellent probe of its transport …

The production of prompt D 0, D s+, and Λ c+ hadrons, and their ratios, D s+/D 0 and Λ c+/D
0, are measured in proton–proton collisions at s= 13 TeV at midrapidity (| y|< 0.5) with the …

Abstract This White Paper presents an overview of the current status and future perspective
of QCD research, based on the community inputs and scientific conclusions from the 2022 …

The production of prompt Λ c+ baryons at midrapidity (| y|< 0.5) was measured in central (0–
10%) and mid-central (30–50%) Pb–Pb collisions at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon …

We present new sets of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) at next-to-leading
order and next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. Our analyses are based on …

A bstract The production of non-prompt D 0 mesons from beauty-hadron decays was
measured at midrapidity (| y|< 0. 5) in Pb-Pb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass …

This letter reports the first measurement of spin alignment, with respect to the helicity axis, for
D⁎+ vector mesons and their charge conjugates from charm-quark hadronisation (prompt) …

This article summarizes our present knowledge about nuclear matter at the highest energy
densities and its formation in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We review what is known about …
