(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)
Ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions, in which the two nuclei pass close to each other, but at an impact parameter greater than the sum of their radii, provide information about the initial state of nuclei. In particular, ...

Elliptic (v2) and higher harmonic (v3, v4) flow coefficients of π±, K±, p(p), and the φ-meson, measured in Pb-Pb collisions at the highest-ever center-of-mass energy of √sNN = 5.02 TeV, are presented. The results were ...

The second and the third order anisotropic flow, V2 and V3, are determined by the corresponding initial spatial anisotropy coefficients, ε2 and ε3, in the initial density distribution. On the contrary, the higher order ...

The study of identified particle production as a function of transverse momentum (pT) and event multiplicity in protonproton (pp) collisions at different center-of-mass energies (√s) is a key tool for understanding ...

First experimental results are presented on event-by-event net-proton fluctuation measurements in Pb- Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV, recorded by the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC. The ALICE detector is well suited for ...

We present the charged-particle pseudorapidity density in pp, p–Pb, and Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV over a broad pseudorapidity range. The distributions are determined using the same experimental apparatus and ...

The availability at the LHC of the largest collision energy in pp collisions allows a significant advance in the measurement of J/ψ production as function of event multiplicity. The interesting relative increase observed ...

We present the ALICE results on the nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow of electrons and muons from open heavy-flavour hadron decays at mid-rapidity and forward rapidity in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 and ...

Particle identification is an important feature of the ALICE detector at the LHC. In particular, for particle identification via the time-of-flight technique, the precise determination of the event collision time represents ...

Among the probes used to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma, the measurement of the energy loss of high-energy partons can be used to put constraints on energy-loss models and to ultimately access medium ...
