Description
Since 2013, LHCb has been developing an ambitious heavy ion physics program which is highly complementary to the other LHC experiments, thanks to the unique coverage of the forward rapidity region and the detector specialized capabilities on reconstruction of heavy flavour hadrons. In this talk, we will present the latest results in p-Pb and Pb-p collisions at sqrt(sNN)=5.02 and 8.16 TeV. Cold Nuclear Matter effects are tested with accurate measurements of nuclear modification factors and forward-backward production of prompt and displaced quarkonia, open charm states as well as of strange hadrons. In 2015, LHCb participated successfully for the first time in the PbPb data-taking. The status of the forward prompt J/ψ nuclear modification factor measurement in lead-lead collisions is discussed.
