(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 W and Z boson production was measured via the muonic decay channel in proton-lead collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider with the ALICE detector. The measurement covers backward (−4.46 < y cms ...

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 ...

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 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 ...

Two- and multi-particle azimuthal correlations have proven to be an excellent tool to probe the properties of thestrongly interacting matter created in heavy-ion collisions. Recently, the results obtained for multi-particle ...

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 ...

Direct photon production in heavy-ion collisions provides a valuable set of observables to study the hot QCD medium. The direct photons are produced at different stages of the collision and escape the medium unaffected. ...
