The ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC

K. Aamodt, +1154 more
TL;DR: The Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) as discussed by the authors is a general-purpose, heavy-ion detector at the CERN LHC which focuses on QCD, the strong-interaction sector of the Standard Model.
Journal ArticleDOI

ALICE: Physics Performance Report, Volume II

Pietro Cortese, +978 more
- 13 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: The ALICE Collaboration as mentioned in this paper is a general-purpose heavy-ion experiment designed to study the physics of strongly interacting matter and the quark-gluon plasma in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the LHC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alignment of the ALICE Inner Tracking System with cosmic-ray tracks

K. Aamodt, +1109 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the alignment of the inner tracking system of the ALICE Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE ITS) with the Millepede global approach has been studied and the results obtained for the ITS alignment using about 10(5) charged tracks from cosmic rays that have been collected during summer 2008.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance of the ALICE VZERO system

E. Abbas, +1022 more
TL;DR: The ALICE VZERO system, made of two scintillator arrays at asymmetric positions, one on each side of the interaction point, plays a central role in ALICE and is used to monitor LHC beam conditions, to reject beam-induced backgrounds and to measure basic physics quantities such as luminosity, particle multiplicity, centrality and event plane direction as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of hyperon production at central rapidity in 158-A-GeV/c Pb-Pb collisions

Federico Antinori, +84 more
- 01 Apr 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, hyperon and antihyperon production in Pb-Pb, pPb and pBe collisions at 158 GeV/c per nucleon was studied.
