    "abstract": "There are several indications that an opaque partonic medium is created in\nenergetic Au+Au collisions \\sqrt{s} ~ 100 GeV/nucleon at the Relativistic Heavy\nIon Collider (RHIC). At the extreme densities of ~ 10-100 times normal nuclear\ndensity reached even heavy-flavor hadrons are affected significantly.\nHeavy-quark observables are presented from the parton transport model MPC,\nfocusing on the nuclear suppression pattern, azimuthal anisotropy (\"elliptic\nflow\"), and azimuthal correlations. Comparison with Au+Au data at top RHIC\nenergy \\sqrt{s} = 200 GeV indicates significant heavy quark rescattering,\ncorresponding to roughly five times higher opacities than estimates based on\nleading-order perturbative QCD. We propose measurements of charm-anticharm,\ne.g., D-meson azimuthal correlations as a sensitive, independent probe to\ncorroborate these findings.",
