A data-drive analysis for heavy quark diffusion coefficient

We apply a Bayesian model-to-data analysis on an improved Langevin framework to estimate the temperature and momentum dependence of the heavy quark diffusion coefficient in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The spatial diffusion coefficient is found to have a minimum around 1-3 near Tc in the zero momen...

description We apply a Bayesian model-to-data analysis on an improved Langevin framework to estimate the temperature and momentum dependence of the heavy quark diffusion coefficient in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The spatial diffusion coefficient is found to have a minimum around 1-3 near Tc in the zero momentum limit, and has a non-trivial momentum dependence. With the estimated diffusion coefficient, our improved Langevin model is able to simultaneously describe the D-meson RAA and v2 in three different systems at RHIC and the LHC.
