Prospects for Open Heavy Flavor Measurements in Heavy Ion and p+A Collisions in a Fixed-Target Experiment at the LHC

High luminosity data in a fixed-target experiment allow studying interactions of heavy quarks with nuclear matter in the intermediate energy range with extremely high precision. We present a feasibility study for open charm and bottom production measurements in the energy range of a fixed-target exp...
