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, ...

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 ...

The characterisation of the jet substructure can give insight into the microscopic nature of the modification inducedon high-momentum partons by the Quark-Gluon Plasma that is formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. ...

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 ...

The measurement of azimuthal correlations of charged particles is presented for Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=2.76 TeV and p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. ...

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 ...

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 ...
