Addressing the hypertriton lifetime puzzle with ALICE at the LHC
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The ALICE Collaboration collected a large data sample of Pb-Pb collisions at√sNN=5.02 TeV in 2015 at the LargeHadron Collider (LHC) and the excellent particle identification (PID) capabilities allow for the detection of ... -
ALICE measurement of the \(J/\psi\) nuclear modification factor at mid-rapidity in Pb–Pb collisions at \(\sqrt{{s}_{NN}}=\) 5.02 TeV
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-11)ALICE at the LHC provides unique capabilities to study charmonium production at low transverse momenta ( p T ). At central rapidity, ( |y|<0.8 ), ALICE can reconstruct J/ ψ via their decay into two electrons down to zero ... -
ALICE measurements of flow coefficients and their correlations in small (pp and p–Pb) and large (Xe–Xe and Pb–Pb) collision systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Many observables which are used as a signature of the collective effects in heavy-ion collisions when measured in high multiplicity pp and pA interactions reveal a very similar behaviour. We will present first measurements ... -
ALICE results on system-size dependence of charged-particle multiplicity density in p–Pb, Pb–Pb and Xe–Xe collisions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Particle production at LHC energies involves the interplay of hard (perturbative) and soft (non-perturbative) QCD processes. Global observables, such as the charged-particle multiplicity, are related to the initial geometry ... -
The ALICE TPC, a large 3-dimensional tracking device with fast readout for ultra-high multiplicity events
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-10-01)The design, construction, and commissioning of the ALICE Time-Projection Chamber (TPC) is described. It is the main device for pattern recognition, tracking, and identification of charged particles in the ALICE experiment ... -
The ALICE Transition Radiation Detector: Construction, operation, and performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02)The Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) was designed and built to enhance the capabilities of the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). While aimed at providing electron identification and triggering, the TRD ... -
Alternative gauge for the description of the light-matter interaction in a relativistic framework
