Drag and diffusion coefficients are calculated from an effective model based on chiral symmetry and heavy-quark effective theory, and utilized in a relativistic Langevin simulation to obtain transverse-momentum spectra and elliptic flow (v_2) of c- and b-quarks. The hadronization to D- and B-mesons is described by coalescence and fragmentation, and the resulting decay-electron spectra are compared to recent RHIC data.proceedings for PANIC05High Energy Physics - PhenomenologyNuclear ExperimentNuclear TheoryThermalization and Flow of Heavy Quarks in the Quark-Gluon Plasmatext
