In comparison with the ALICE results [ref] for $D$ mesons, the optimal $K$ values extracted from RHIC lead to a slight excess of quenching [ref] at intermediate $p_T$ for both models, while $v_2(D)$ in good agreement [ref] with the data.

Since the discovery that heavy quarks (HQ) manifest a large coupling with the hot medium created in heavy ions ultrarelativistic collisions, many models and theoretical schemes (for a review see e.g. [ref] ) have been proposed in order to achieve a quantitative understanding of experimental data [ref] .

We only adapted the plasma expansion (simulated with the hydrodynamical code of Kolb-Heinz [ref] ) to obtain $dN_ch/dy=1600$ at the chemical freeze out and the initial $p_T$-distribution (taken according to FONLL 1.3.2), which is harder than at the RHIC energy[This explains why the medium appears as less opaque to HQ propagation although it is denser.] A satisfactory agreement is obtained although the $p_T$-range of the present data is not sufficient to disambiguate between collisional and radiative energy loss.
