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.

Upgrade of the ALICE Experiment Letter Of Intent

Betty Abelev, +1057 more
- 01 Aug 2014 - 
TL;DR: The ALICE Collaboration is preparing a major upgrade of the experimental apparatus, planned for installation in the second long LHC shutdown in the years 2018-2019 as mentioned in this paper, which will be achieved by an increase of the Pb-Pb instant luminosity up to 6×1027 cm−2s−1 and running the ALICE detector with the continuous readout at the 50 kHz event rate.

New picture of jet quenching dictated by color coherence

TL;DR: In this article, a new description of the jet quenching phenomenon observed in nuclear collisions at high energies is proposed, in which coherent parton branching plays a central role, based on the appearance of a dynamically generated scale, which controls the transverse resolution power of the medium to simultaneously propagating color probes.

Linearized Boltzmann transport model for jet propagation in the quark-gluon plasma: Heavy quark evolution

TL;DR: In this paper, a linearized Boltzmann transport model coupled with hydrodynamical background is established to describe the evolution of jet shower partons and medium excitations in high energy heavy-ion collisions.

From Full Stopping to Transparency in a Holographic Model of Heavy Ion Collisions

TL;DR: A crossover between two different dynamical regimes as a function of the collision energy is uncovered and the rapidity distribution of the energy density at late times around midrapidity is not approximately boost invariant but Gaussian, albeit with a width that increases with the collisionEnergy.

Heavy-flavour spectra in high-energy nucleus–nucleus collisions

TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic Langevin equation is applied to the propagation of heavy quarks produced in relatievistic nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC to study the background of an expanding deconfined medium described by ideal and viscous hydrodynamics.

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.
