ALICE is a high-energy physics experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva, to study the properties of quark-gluon plasma, formed in heavy-ion collisions. In the upgrade program, a new electromagnetic forward calorimeter (FOCAL) based on silicon and tungsten (Si$+$W) sampling configuration, has been proposed to address new physics objectives of ALICE experiment.

A wide swing charge sensitive amplifier (CSA) has been developed, as a part of a front-end electronics (FEE) readout ASIC, for a prototype silicon tungsten (Si-W) based electromagnetic (EM) calorimeter. The CSA, designed in 0.35 $\mu$m N-well CMOS technology using 5V MOS transistors, has a wide linear operating range of 2.6 pC w.r.t the input charge with a power dissipation of 2.3 mW. [...]

We present the research and development work of the first version of a 6*6 array of silicon pad detectors, carried out in India, for the proposed forward calorimeter (FOCAL) as part of the ALICE collaboration upgrade program at CERN. The primary motivation is to develop a large area silicon pad array realizing the challenging requirements of high-energy physics experiments such as low leakage current, high breakdown voltage and evaluate its performance as an active layer in the prototype silicon tungsten (Si-W) electromagnetic (EM) calorimeter.

A silicon-tungsten (Si-W) sampling calorimeter, consisting of 19 alternate layers of silicon pad detectors (individual pad area of 1~cm$^2$) and tungsten absorbers (each of one radiation length), has been constructed for measurement of electromagnetic showers over a large energy range. The signal from each of the silicon pads is readout using an ASIC with a dynamic range from $-300$~fC to $+500$~fC. [...]

Event-shape engineering for the D-meson elliptic flow in mid-central Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=5.02$ TeV
/ ALICE Collaboration
The production yield of prompt D mesons and their elliptic flow coefficient $v_2$ were measured with the Event-Shape Engineering (ESE) technique applied to mid-central (10-30% and 30-50% centrality classes) Pb-Pb collisions at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} =5.02$ TeV, with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The ESE technique allows the classification of events, belonging to the same centrality, according to the azimuthal anisotropy of soft particle production in the collision. [...]
