Query: Flavor dependence of jet quenching in $pp$ collisions and its effect on
  the $R_{AA}$ for heavy mesons   We study the flavor dependence of the medium modification factor $R_{pp}$ for
$pp$ collisions for scenario with formation of a small-size quark-gluon plasma
(QGP) for RHIC ($\sqrt{s}=0.2$ TeV) and LHC ($\sqrt{s}=2.76$ TeV) energies. We
find that at $p_T\sim 10$ GeV the pion spectrum is suppressed by $\sim
20-30\,(25-35)$\% for RHIC (LHC), for $D$~($B$) mesons the suppression effect
is smaller by a factor of $\sim 0.7-0.8$ ($0.5$). The flavor hierarchy
$R_{pp}^\pi<R_{pp}^D<R_{pp}^B$ is held at $p_T\lesssim 20$ GeV for RHIC and at
$p_T\lesssim 70$ GeV for LHC. This gives a sizeable reduction of the
heavy-to-light ratios of the nuclear modification factors $R_{AA}$ as compared
to that in the standard scenario without the QGP production in $pp$ collisions.
