We study the production and angular correlationof charm hadrons in hot and dense matter produced in high-energy nuclear-nuclear collisions within a multiphasetransport model(AMPT).By triggering additional charm-anticharm quark pair production in the AMPT,the modeldescribes the D^0 nuclear modification factor in the low andintermediate pr regions in Au+Au collisions at√VSNN=200 GeV reasonably well.Further exploration of the D^0 pair azimuthal angular correlation for different centralitiesshows clear evolution from low-multiplicity to high-mul-tiplicity events,which is associated with the number ofcharm quark interactions with medium partons duringAMPT transport.
