Measurements of beauty-decay electrons in ALICE at the LHC
Heavy quarks are essential probes of the evolution of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) created in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. In particular, the dependencies of the medium-induced parton energy loss on the parton mass and colour charge can be investigated via measurements of open heavy-flav...
