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, ...

A detailed study of pseudorapidity densities and multiplicity distributions of primary charged particles produced in proton–proton collisions, at s√= 0.9, 2.36, 2.76, 7 and 8 TeV, in the pseudorapidity range |η|<2, was ...

The ALICE Collaboration and the ALICE O2 project have carried out detailed studies for a new online computing facility planned to be deployed for Run 3 of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Some of the main aspects ...

We present the first measurement of the two-particle transverse momentum differential correlation function, P2≡ ⟨ Δ p T Δ p T ⟩ / ⟨ p T ⟩ 2 , in Pb-Pb collisions at √ s N N = 2.76     TeV . Results for P2 are reported as ...

The azimuthal correlations of D mesons with charged particles were measured with the ALICE apparatus in pp collisions at s√=7 TeVs=7 TeV and p–Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeVsNN=5.02 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. ...

The production of K∗ ( 892 ) 0 and ϕ ( 1020 ) mesons in proton-proton ( p p ) and lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions at √ s NN = 2.76 TeV has been analyzed using a high luminosity data sample accumulated in 2011 with the ALICE ...
