The ALICE Collaboration has measured the production of prompt D mesons in p-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 5.02 TeV rapidity range -0.04 < ycms 0.96 via exclusive reconstruction their hadronic decays:The pT-differential cross sections and pT-dependent nuclear modification factors with respect to a proton-proton reference, R pPb , are presented.
A cloud-based Virtual Analysis Facility (VAF) for the ALICE experiment at LHC has been deployed in Bari. Similar facilities are currently running other Italian sites with aim to create a federation of interoperating farms able provide their computing resources interactive distributed analysis. The use cloud technology, along elastic provisioning as an alternative grid data intensive analyses, is main challenge these facilities. One crucial aspects user-driven analysis execution access. local...
ALICE at the CERN LHC will investigate physics of strongly interacting matter extreme energy densities where formation Quark Gluon Plasma is expected. Its properties can be studied from observations like production mesons with charm and beauty quarks. These signals have to as a function density, which determined by centrality collisions. One observables that closely related collision number spectator nucleons measured Zero Degree Calorimeters (ZDC). Having direct geometric interpretation...
The Zero Degree Calorimeters (ZDCs) for the ALICE experiment will measure energy of spectator nucleons in heavy ion collisions at CERN LHC. Since all have same energy, calorimeter reponse is proportional to their umber providing a direct information on centrality collision. Two sets ZDCs are located opposite sides with respect interaction point (I), 116 m away from it Each set consists neutron (ZN) calorimeter, placed between two beam pipes, an proton (ZP) posioned externally outgoing pipe....
The present work aims at optimizing the use of computing resources available grid Italian Tier-2 sites ALICE experiment CERN LHC by making them accessible to interactive distributed analysis, thanks modern solutions based on cloud computing. scalability and elasticity via dynamic ("on-demand") provisioning is essentially limited size site, reaching theoretical optimum only in asymptotic case infinite resources. main challenge project overcome this limitation federating different through a...
In 2012, 14 Italian institutions participating in LHC Experiments won a grant from the Ministry of Research (MIUR), with aim optimising analysis activities, and general Tier2/Tier3 infrastructure. We report on activities being researched upon, considerable improvement ease access to resources by physicists, also those no specific computing interests. focused items like distributed storage federations, batch-like facilities, provisioning user interfaces demand cloud systems. R&D...
ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is the LHC experiment devoted to study of strong interacting matter created in heavy-ion collisions.The Inner Tracking System (ITS) consists six layers silicon detectors exploiting three different technologies: pixel, drift and strip (from inside outside).It covers central pseudorapidity range, |η| < 0.9, its distance from beam line ranges r = 3.9 cm for innermost pixel layer up 43 outermost layer.The main tasks ITS are reconstruct primary secondary...
These proceedings present the D0, D+ and D*+ meson v2 measured by ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at = 2.76 TeV with various methods (the standard event plane, scalar product Q-cumulant) different centrality classes.
The radiography based on Multiple Coulomb scattering of cosmic muons is a useful technique for high-Z material identification. It can be used to inspect big volumes such as vehicles or cargo the detection illegal transport nuclear matter (i.e. Uranium). For this purpose, large area position sensitive detectors are needed: Resistive Plate Chambers well fulfill all experimental requirements. A test identify materials has been performed using RPCs muon spectrometer ALICE experiment. description...
The ALICE Collaboration has measured heavy-flavour production through the reconstruction of hadronic decays D mesons at mid-rapidity and via semi-electronic (at mid-rapidity) semi-muonic forward rapidity) charm beauty hadrons in pp, p-Pb Pb-Pb collisions. A summary most recent results from collisions $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02$ TeV $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76$ is presented this paper.
