Abstract

Abstract: We discuss the present status of the tomography of a quark gluon plasma (QGP) with help of heavy quarks. We address the question whether collisional or radiative energy loss dominates, how different expansion scenarios of the medium influence the observables and which state of the expansion is impressed in the R AA and v 2 observables.
