Jet Quenching of Massive Quark in Nuclear Medium BenWei Zhang Institute of Particle Physics Central China Normal Univeristy ICHEP, Beijing Augest 16, 2020 Thanks to my collaborators: XinNian Wang and Enke Wang 2 BenWei Zhang, ICHEP’04, Beijing Outline ? Motivation ? Modified heavy quark fragmentation function ? Heavy quark energy loss Heavy VS. Light ? Conclusion 3 BenWei Zhang, ICHEP’04, Beijing Jet Quenching Jet quenching has been discovered at RHIC as a good probe of the hot/dense matter. hadrons ph parton E . Wang, nuclth/0405017 4 BenWei Zhang, ICHEP’04, Beijing From Light to Heavy Theory: ? A lot of theoretical studies have been devoted to the calculations of the energy loss of a light quark. ? For massive quarks, the formalism of mediuminduced gluon radiation is not developed to the same extent. Experiment: ? Open charm suppression, which can now be measured at RHIC by paring pt distributions of Dmesons in
