DOWNLOAD EBOOKHere, the elliptic flow coefficient (v2) of identified particles in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN =2.76 TeV was measured with the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The results were obtained with the Scalar Product method, a two-particle correlation technique, using a pseudo-rapidity gap of.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis thesis provides a comprehensive view of the physics of charmed hadrons in high-energy proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. Given their large masses, charm quarks are produced in the early stage of a heavy-ion collision and they subsequently experience the full system evolution probing the colour-deconfined medium called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in such collisions. In this thesis, the mechanisms of charm-quark in-medium energy loss and hadronisation are discussed via the measurements of the production of charm mesons with (Ds+) and without (D+) strange-quark content in different colliding systems, using data collected by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. The participation of the charm quark and its possible thermalisation in the QGP are studied via measurements of azimuthal anisotropies in the production of D+ mesons. Finally, the prospects for future measurements with the upgraded ALICE experimental apparatus and with more refined machine learning techniques are presented.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a review volume containing articles written by experts on current theoretical topics in the subject of Quark-Gluon Plasma created in heavy-ion collisions at high energy. It is the fourth volume in the series with the same title sequenced numerically. The articles are written in a pedagogical style so that they can be helpful to a wide range of researchers from graduate students to mature physicists who have not worked previously on the subject. A reader should be able to learn from the reviews without having extensive knowledge of the background literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis new volume, I/23, of the Landolt-Börnstein Data Collection series continues a tradition inaugurated by the late Editor-in-Chief, Professor Werner Martienssen, to provide in the style of an encyclopedia a summary of the results and ideas of Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics. Formerly, the Landolt-Börnstein series was mostly known as a compilation of numerical data and functional relations, but it was felt that the more comprehensive summary undertaken here should meet an urgent purpose. Volume I/23 reports on the present state of theoretical and experimental knowledge in the field of Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics. What is meant by this rather technical terminology is the study of strongly interacting matter, and its phases (in short QCD matter) by means of nucleus-nucleus collisions at relativistic energy. The past decade has seen a dramatic progress, and widening of scope in this field, which addresses one of the chief remaining open frontiers of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and, in a wider sense, the "Standard Model of Elementary Interactions". The data resulting from the CERN SPS, BNL AGS and GSI SIS experiments, and in particular also from almost a decade of experiments carried out at the "Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider"(RHIC) at Brookhaven, have been fully analyzed, uncovering a wealth of information about both the confined and deconfined phases of QCD at high energy density.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCollective flow has historically been an indicator that nuclear matter created in heavy ion collisions has undergone a phase change to a novel state where its constituent particles are deconfined. This phase, called a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), has many characteristics that are signature of its creation. Chief among these is the collective behavior of the nuclear matter indicated by its anisotropic flow, as well as high pT particle suppression, baryon enhancement at mid-p T, and the enhancement of strange quark containing particles above binary scaling expectations. Recent results from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) show evidence of collective flow in the simpler p+Pb system, implying that a QGP may be formed in smaller systems than previously thought. An elliptic flow measurement with identified particles in d+Au collisions could reveal more about the nuclear matter created in these simpler systems. The Pioneering High Energy Nuclear Ion Experiment, or PHENIX, Time of Flight detector used in conjunction with its Aerogel Cherenkov Counter can provide particle identification with good proton/kaon/pion separation for pT
