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, ...

We present the results of three-dimensional femtoscopic analyses for charged and neutral kaons recorded by ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at √ s NN = 2.76 TeV. Femtoscopy is used to measure the space-time characteristics of ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)
Highlights of recent results from the ALICE collaboration are presented. The collision systems investigated are Pb–Pb, p–Pb, and pp, and results from studies of bulk particle production, azimuthal correlations, open and ...

In ultra relativistic heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), conditions are met to produce a hot, denseand strongly interacting medium known as the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). Quarks and gluons from incoming ...

Strangeness production is a key tool to understand the properties of the medium formed in heavy-ion collisions: an enhanced production of strange particles was early proposed as one of the signatures of the Quark-Gluon ...

We report measurement of the semi-inclusive distribution of charged-particle jets recoiling from a high transverse momentum (pT) hadron trigger, for p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV, in p–Pb events classified by event ...

W and Z bosons are massive weakly-interacting particles, insensitive to the strong interaction. They provide therefore a medium-blind probe of the initial state of the heavy-ion collisions. The final results for the W and ...

The second and the third order anisotropic flow, V2and V3, are mostly determined by the corresponding initial spatial anisotropy coefficients, ε2and ε3, in the initial density distribution. In addition to their dependence on ...

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 ...
