Data-driven measurements of the beauty hadron production in p-Pb collisions at \sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.02 and 8.16 TeV
Beauty-hadron production in proton-nucleus collisions is a particularly powerful probe of cold nuclear matter (CNM) effects: thanks to the large beauty-quark mass, the production is initiated in early hard scatterings and is calculable in perturbative QCD, while the modifications observed in nuclear collisions directly...
