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.

Inclusive diffractive heavy quarkonium photoproduction including quark subprocesses

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the contribution of quark involved subprocesses in heavy quarkonium photoproduction and showed that the contributions from the quark-involved sub-processes can reach to $8\% and $6\% in the transverse momentum distribution, respectively.

Inelastic diffraction and role of reflective scattering at the LHC

TL;DR: In this article, the high energy dependencies of diffractive and non-diffractive inelastic cross-sections in view of the recent LHC data which revealed a presence of the reflective scattering mode are discussed.

Hydrodynamics of a quark droplet

TL;DR: In this article, a simple model of a multi-quark droplet evolution based on the hydrodynamical description is presented, including collective expansion of the droplet, effects of the vacuum pressure and surface tension.

The ALICE time machine

TL;DR: The ALICE experiment at CERN is dedicated to the study of the medium produced in these collisions, in particular, the heavy quarkonia suppression pattern can give a measure of the temperature reached in the collisions, helping us to understand how close we are to the conditions of the starting point of the Universe as discussed by the authors.

Inclusive production of vector quarkonia at the LHC

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the prompt production of mesons in proton-proton collisions at the LHC within NRQCD k$t$-factorization approach using Kimber-Martin-Ryskin (KMR) and Kutak-Stasto (KS) unintegrated gluon distribution (UGDF).

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.
