Abstract.

The potential of coming experiments on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to observe the rescattering and energy loss of heavy quarks in the dense matter created in heavy ion collisions is discussed. We analyze the sensitivity of high-mass \(\mu^+\mu^-\) pairs from \(B \overline{B}\) semileptonic decays and secondary \(J/\psi\)'s from single B decays to the medium-induced bottom quark energy loss.
