“…In the default version [55], the initial conditions are strings and minijets from the HIJING model and particle production is based on the Lund string fragmentation, while in the string melting version [56], the initial conditions are valence quarks and antiquarks from hadrons produced in the HIJING model and hadronization is described by a coordinate-space coalescence model. Using the AMPT model, we predict in the following the hadron rapidity and transverse momentum distributions, the elliptic flows of both light and heavy hadrons, the two-pion and two-kaon correlation functions in Pb+Pb collisions at center-of-mass energy of √ s NN = 5.5 TeV at LHC [57]. Shown in the left window of figure 21 are the charged hadron pseudorapidity distribution and the rapidity distributions of identified hadrons obtained with (lines with circles) and without (solid lines) nuclear shadowing of nucleon parton distribution functions.…”

“…Multiplicity predictions based on Boltzmann/cascade calculations can be significantly higher yet. Selecting two for which femtoscopic predictions also exist (Section 5.2), A Multi-Phase Transport (AMPT) calculation (149) and the Hadronic Rescattering Model (HRM) (150) predict 5× and 7× RHIC multiplicity, respectively. Thus, femtoscopic scales at LHC may be as much as 90% higher than at RHIC.…”

Two-particle femtoscopy reveals the space-time substructure of the freeze-out configuration from heavy ion collisions. Detailed fingerprints of bulk collectivity are evident in space-momentum correlations, which have been systematically measured as a function of particle type, three-momentum, and collision conditions. A clear scenario, dominated by hydrodynamic-type flow emerges. Reproducing the strength and features of the femtoscopic signals in models involves important physical quantities like the Equation of State, as well as less fundamental technical details. An interesting approximate "factorization" in the measured systematics suggests that the overall physical freeze-out scale is set by final state chemistry, but the kinematic substructure is largely universal. Referring to previous results from hadron and lepton collisions, we point to the importance of determining whether these "universal" trends persist from the largest to the smallest systems. We review theoretical expectations for heavy ion femtoscopy at the LHC, and point to directions needing further theory and experimental work at RHIC and the LHC.

“…Flow, in particular elliptic flow [11], is an important experimental probe which provides information about thermalization of the medium created in non-central heavy ion collision. Here we will show the expected performance for the measurement of D + v 2 as a function of p t with ALICE.…”

The ALICE experiment will be able to detect hadrons containing charm and beauty quarks in proton-proton and heavy ion collisions in the new energy regime of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Open charmed mesons are a powerful tool to study the medium produced in heavy ion collisions, since charm quarks are produced on a very short time scale and they experience the whole history of the collision. In addition, the measurements of heavy flavour yield provide a natural normalization for those of charmonia and bottomonia production at LHC. In this talk, after a general overview of ALICE perspectives for heavy flavour physics, we will report some study of D-meson reconstruction through their hadronic decay channels with Monte Carlo simulated data.
