Measurement of muon tagged open heavy flavor production in Pb+Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV with ATLAS

Heavy flavor quarks are an important probe with which to study the hot, dense medium produced in heavy ion collisions. Charm and bottom quarks are produced at a relatively early stage of the collision and may have a smaller gluon radiation due to the dead cone effect. Semi-leptonic heavy flavor deca...

description Heavy flavor quarks are an important probe with which to study the hot, dense medium produced in heavy ion collisions. Charm and bottom quarks are produced at a relatively early stage of the collision and may have a smaller gluon radiation due to the dead cone effect. Semi-leptonic heavy flavor decays can be identified by the presence of a muon and separated from the light meson background using a template fitting method. In this talk, we present the RCP for heavy flavor muons in Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76 TeV as a function of muon momentum.
