Abstract

We present first results of a new approach, EPOSHQ, which combines the EPOS3 event generator with the heavy quarks physics. In this approach light and heavy quarks are simultaneously created in the elementary collisions. The heavy quarks interact by elastic and radiative collisions with the plasma constituents, given by the EPOS3 approach, employing the full Boltzmann collision integral. This approach will allow for the description of correlations between light and heavy mesons.
