dc.descriptionHeavy quark jet quenching in nuclear collisions at LHC is predicted and compared using the classical gravity AdS/CFT correspondence and Standard Model perturbative QCD. The momentum independence and inverse quark mass dependence of the drag coefficient in AdS/CFT differs substantially from the characteristic log(pT/M)/pT variation of the drag in QCD. We propose that the measurement of the momentum dependence of the double ratio of the nuclear modification factors of charm and bottom jets is a robust observable that can be used to search for strong coupling deviations from perturbative QCD predictions.
