Heavy flavor transport and observables in heavy-ion collisions within the MARTINI+MUSIC framework

We study the transport dynamics of charm quarks within an expanding quark-gluon plasma for Pb+Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV. The analysis incorporates the hydrodynamical approach-MUSIC with fluctuating IP-Glasma initial state and Bayesian-quantified viscous coefficients. We study the interaction strength of charm quarks in the medium, including elastic collisional processes with medium constituents, gluon emission processes, and the impact of non-perturbative interactions on heavy quark transport. Further, we analyze the dynamics of heavy flavors using a hybrid framework that incorporates the MARTINI event generator, with PYTHIA8.1 for the initial production of heavy quarks, and Langevin dynamics to describe the evolution of heavy quarks.
