Quarkonia, i.e. bound states of bb¯ and cc¯ quarks, are powerful observables to study the properties of nuclear matter under extreme conditions. The formation of a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), which is predicted by lattice ...

We present new measurements related to spin alignment of K∗0 vector mesons at mid-rapidity for Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 and 5.02 TeV. The spin alignment measurements are carried out with respect to production plane ...

Measurements of open heavy flavour production in p–A collisions allow the investigation of Cold Nuclear Matter effects. In addition, they are an important tool for a complementary investigation of the long-range correlations ...

Femtoscopic correlations between charged pions and kaons for different charge combinations are measured in Pb−Pb collisions at √ sNN = 2.76 TeV with ALICE at the LHC. The three-dimensional pion-kaon (π − K) correlation ...

Azimuthally-differential femtoscopic measurements, being sensitive to spatio-temporal characteristics of the source as well as to the collective velocity fields at freeze out, provide very important information on the ...

The first measurement of e+e− pair production at mid-rapidity (|ηe| < 0.8) in pp collisions at s√=7 TeV with ALICE at the LHC is presented. The dielectron production is studied as a function of the invariant mass (mee < ...
