(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, ...
(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 ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)
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. ...

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. ...

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 ...

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, 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 ...

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 ...

Dielectrons produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions provide a unique probe of the whole system evolution as they are unperturbed by final-state interactions. The dielectron continuum is extremely rich in physics ...

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 ...
