Charged particle identification in the ALICE experiment
A key feature of the ALICE experiment will be the capability to identify the charged particles in the full range of momentum thus allowing to investigate the properties of the quark-gluon plasma during its dynamical evolution toward the freeze-out phase when the re-hadronization occurs. Low momentum hadron identification will be achieved via measurements of energy loss in the silicon layers of ...
متن کاملCharged Particle Multiplicity in Diffractive Deep Inelastic Scattering
The recent data from H1 Collaboration on hadron multiplicity in diffractive DIS has been studied in the framework of perturbative QCD as a function of invariant diffractive mass. The formulas obtained explain the observed excess of particle production in diffractive DIS relative to that in DIS and e+e− annihilation. It is shown that the results are sensitive to the quark–gluon structure of the ...
متن کاملCentrality Dependence of the Charged-Particle Multiplicity Density at Midrapidity
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of the strong interaction, predicts a phase transition at high temperature between hadronic and deconfined matter (the quark-gluon plasma). Strongly interacting matter under such extreme conditions can be studied experimentally using ultrarelativistic collisions of heavy nuclei. The field entered a new era in November 2010 when the Large Hadron Collider ...
متن کاملMeasuring jets with ALICE
The rate of jets expected in ALICE was determined using PYTHIA. We first calculated the inclusive jet cross section in pp̄ collision at √ s=1.8 TeV and compared it to the data of the D0 experiment[1]. As shown in Fig. 1, the PYTHIA calculation, up-scaled by K=1.5, describes the data reasonably well. The calculation was performed in three runs differing by the value of the CKIN(50) parameter whic...
متن کاملCharged particle production in Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions at ALICE
Global event observables are of fundamental importance in characterizing the properties of the strongly interacting medium created in heavy-ion collisions. The ALICE experiment at LHC measured charged particle multiplicity distributions in Pb-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 2.76 TeV in a wide pseudo-rapidity range (−5 < η < 5.5) exploiting different techniques. The production of high transverse moment...
