Open Heavy Flavour: Experimental summary

Abstract

In this paper I will review a few of the latest experimental measurements of heavy-flavour hadrons presented at the Hard Probes 2018 conference. Results from experiments both at RHIC and at the LHC will be discussed. I will present some of the open questions that still need to be addressed with heavy quarks in small collision systems and in A-A collisions, to better understand the properties of the QGP produced in heavy-ion collisions. I will discuss some of the open heavy-flavour measurements designed to give insights into these questions.
