Journal ArticleDOI

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

The ALICE Collaboration

K. Aamodt, +992 more
- 01 Nov 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the production of mesons containing strange quarks (KS, φ) and both singly and doubly strange baryons (,, and − + +) are measured at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at √ s = 0.9 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elliptic Flow of Charged Particles in Pb-Pb Collisions at root s(NN)=2.76 TeV

K. Aamodt, +1014 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first measurement of charged particle elliptic flow in Pb-Pb collisions at root s(NN) p = 2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider was performed in the central pseudorapidity region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global Λ hyperon polarization in nuclear collisions

L. Adamczyk, +341 more
- 23 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, an alignment between the global angular momentum of a non-central collision and the spin of emitted particles is presented, revealing that the fluid produced in heavy ion collisions is the most vortical system so far observed.
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.
