  Some of the open questions on jet quenching are expected to be clarified by
measuring heavy-flavored mesons at high transverse momentum. The formalism
based on radiative in-medium energy-loss, which describes other high-pt results
at RHIC, gives definite predictions for the suppression of charm and beauty
quarks. However, the uncertainties from both contributions to the observed
electrons make the interpretation of the data difficult due to the absence of a
well calibrated benchmark. We review the present situation as well as the
consequences for the future LHC. We also comment on the use of heavy flavored
jet angular correlations as an additional tool to study the underline dynamics
of jet quenching.
