Abstract
Suppression of light and heavy flavor observables is one of the most important probes in studying the properties of QCD matter created at RHIC and LHC experiments. We will here summarize the most up-to-date light and heavy flavor suppression predictions for 2.76 TeV central Pb+Pb collisions at LHC. The predictions are based on our recent improvements in the energy loss calculations that take into account: i) theoretical formalism which includes finite size dynamical QCD medium with finite magnetic mass effects and running coupling, and ii) numerical procedure which includes path-length and multi-gluon fluctuations. Our theoretical predictions, obtained with no free parameters used in model testing, show a very good agreement with the experimental results for all available particle species. Our results show that the developed theoretical formalism is able to robustly explain suppression data at LHC, which strongly suggests that pQCD in Quark-Gluon Plasma can provide a reasonable description of the underlying jet physics in ultra relativistic heavy ion collisions.
