Heavy­flavour measurements in Pb­Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC

The ALICE experiment studies the properties of the strongly-interacting matter created in high energy heavy-ion collisions, called Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Heavy quarks are a powerful probe for investigating such a state of matter, since they are predominantly produced in the first hard scattering...
