▪ Abstract Strangeness production is a very useful diagnostic tool in finding the quark-gluon
plasma. We review its uses in understanding relativistic heavy-ion collisions. A brief …

The extraction of the effects due to higher twist terms in processes where the incident quarks
probe deep inside the target particles is known to be difficult. The theoreti cal aspects of …

We report the first measurement at the LHC of coherent photoproduction of ρ 0 mesons in
ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions. The invariant mass and transverse momentum …

On 23rd November 2009, during the early commissioning of the CERN Large Hadron
Collider (LHC), two counter-rotating proton bunches were circulated for the first time …

This article presents new measurements of the fragmentation properties of jets in both
proton–proton (pp) and heavy-ion collisions with the ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron …

Heavy-ion collisions at ultra relativistic energies produce a new form of QCD matter
characterized by the deconfined state of quarks and gluons (partons). Measurements of the …

Ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions produce the quarkgluon plasma (QGP), a high-
temperature and high-energydensity state of strongly-interacting matter, which is …

The design details and test results of a prototype Multiplicity Discriminator (MD) for the
ALICE L0 Trigger electronics are presented. The MD design is aimed at the earliest trigger …
