The measurement of the production of prompt D0 , D+, D∗+, and D+ s mesons in proton–lead (p–Pb) collisions at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √ sNN = 5.02 TeV, with an integrated luminosity of 292 ± 11 µb −1 ...

Heavy quarks, i.e. charm and beauty, are sensitive probes of the medium produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. They are produced in the early stage of the collision, mainly in hard partonic scattering processes, and ...

The production cross section of inclusive isolated photons has been measured by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at a centre-of-momentum energy of √s = 7 TeV. The measurement is performed with the ...

Inclusive J/ψ production is studied in minimum-bias proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s√ = 5.02 TeV by ALICE at the CERN LHC. The measurement is performed at mid-rapidity (|y| < 0.9) in the dielectron ...

Event-by-event fluctuations of conserved charges – such as electric charge, strangeness, and baryon number – in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions provide insight into the properties of the quark-gluon plasma and the ...

Results on the production of stable light nuclei, including deuterons,3He,4He and the corresponding anti-nuclei, inPb–Pb collisions at√sNN=2.76 TeV and√sNN=5.02 TeV are presented and compared with theoretical predictionsand ...

Anisotropic flow is a key observable to characterise the system created in heavy-ion collisions, as it is sensitive to the system’s initial state, transport properties, the equation of state and freeze-out conditions. In ...
