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.

TL;DR: A large acceptance Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMCal) was installed in the ALICE central detector to enhance the capabilities for jet quenching measurements as mentioned in this paper, which has played a key role at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and will be central to the study of nuclear collisions.

TL;DR: The ALICE Time Of Flight (TOF) system as discussed by the authors performs charged particle identification in the intermediate momentum range (from 0.5 to a few GeV/c) and in the central pseudorapidity region ( | η | 0.9 ).

TL;DR: A set of quality assurance tests has been developed for this purpose; these tests are applied both to the single chamber components and to the assembled detectors as mentioned in this paper, and the results of these tests over a few hundreds MRPCs of the mass production will be presented.

TL;DR: In this article, Scintillation tiles with MRS APD light readout (START) are used as basic triggering units of a cosmic muon facility intended for regular tests of all of the numerous ALICE TOF modules in the course of their mass production and exploitation.
