The general intuition that heavier partons suffer weaker energy loss inside aquark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium is critically re-examined. Within a linearBoltzmann transport model that includes both perturbative and non-perturbativeinteractions between heavy quarks and the QGP, we find that while the radiativeenergy loss is suppressed by the parton mass, heavier partons can experiencestronger non-perturbative scatterings with the medium. Their competition mayresult in less energy loss of bottom quarks than charm quarks at low transversemomentum ($p_\mathrm{T}$) but an inverse order at high $p_\mathrm{T}$. Ourmodel calculation provides a good description of the weaker nuclearmodification on bottom particles than charm particles at low $p_\mathrm{T}$observed at the RHIC experiment, and predicts an opposite hierarchy at high$p_\mathrm{T}$. A larger momentum space transport coefficient ($\hat{q}$) and asmaller spatial diffusion coefficient ($D_\mathrm{s}$) are found for bottomquarks than for charm quarks.
