TLDR
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.

ALICE detector status and upgrade plans

TL;DR: ALICE as mentioned in this paper is a general-purpose detector dedicated to heavy-ion physics at the CERN LHC, designed to address the physics of strongly interacting matter and the quark-gluon plasma at extreme values of energy density and temperature in nucleus-nucleus collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Handling missing data for the identification of charged particles in a multilayer detector: A comparison between different imputation methods

TL;DR: To account for the intrinsic asymmetry of the energy loss data, skew-normal mixture models are considered and a closed form implementation in the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm framework is provided to handle missing patterns.

Quantification of Chiral Magnetic Effect from Event-by-Event Anomalous-Viscous Fluid Mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a recently developed Anomalous Viscous Fluid Dynamics (AVFD) framework, which simulates the evolution of fermion currents in QGP on top of the data-validated VISHNU bulk hydro evolution.

Particle Identification with the ALICE detector at the LHC

TL;DR: In this article, various particle identification techniques used for different ALICE analyses are described, and selected results are presented on pp data collected at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and PbPb collisions at 2.76 TeV.

Measurement of jet spectra reconstructed with charged particles in Pb-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC

TL;DR: In this paper, a new ALICE jet calorimeter trigger algorithm was developed for LHC Run 2 to efficiently select events containing high energy electromagnetic showers and measuring charged jet production cross sections in Pb-Pb collisions at the highest-ever centre of mass energy of 5.02TeV provided by the LHC.

GEANT Detector Description and Simulation Tool

TL;DR: GEANT as discussed by the authors is a system of detector description and simulation tools that help physicists in high energy particle physics experiments, and it can be used to design and optimise the detectors, develop and test the reconstruction and analysis programs, and interpret the experimental data.

Application of Kalman filtering to track and vertex fitting

TL;DR: In this article, the proper theoretical framework for these procedures is the theory of linear filtering, in particular the Kalman filter, and the results from filtering theory are confirmed and extend the previous results.

EPS09: A New Generation of NLO and LO Nuclear Parton Distribution Functions

TL;DR: In this paper, a next-to-leading order (NLO) analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) and their uncertainties was carried out for the first time with three different types of experimental input, including Drell-Yan dilepton production in p+A collisions and inclusive pion production in d+Au and p+p collisions at RHIC.
