Detail description
The nuclear modification factor RpPb of prompt Λ+c baryons in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV as a function of pT compared to that of D mesons (average of D0, D+ and D∗+ in the range 1 < pT < 12 GeV/c, and D0 in the range 0 < pT < 1 GeV/c) (left panel) and to model calculations (right panel). The predictions for the comparison are the Λ+c RpPb from the POWHEG event generator with EPS09NLO parameterisation of the nuclear modification of the PDFs and the charm-hadron RpPb from the POWLANG transport model assuming a QGP is formed in p–Pb collisions.
