The ALICE experiment was proposed in 1993, to study strongly-interacting matter at extreme
energy densities and temperatures. This proposal entailed a comprehensive investigation of …

We review the theoretical and experimental progress in the Glauber model of multiple
nucleon and/or parton scatterings after the last 10–15 years of operation with proton and …

In this Letter, comprehensive results on π±, K±, KS 0, p (p¯) and Λ (Λ¯) production at mid-
rapidity (0< y CMS< 0.5) in p–Pb collisions at s NN= 5.02 TeV, measured by the ALICE …

At the end of 2010, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN started operation with heavy-
ion beams, colliding lead nuclei at a center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV per nucleon. These …

Heavy ion collisions quickly form a droplet of quark–gluon plasma (QGP) with a remarkably
small viscosity. We give an accessible introduction to how to study this smallest and hottest …

The charged-particle pseudorapidity density measured over four units of pseudorapidity in
nonsingle-diffractive p+ Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair s NN …

This work presents a three-dimensional dynamical initialization model for relativistic heavy-
ion collisions, implementing local energy-momentum conservation and baryon charge …

Measurements of midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity distributions, d N ch/d η, and
midrapidity transverse-energy distributions, d ET/d η, are presented for a variety of collision …

The pseudorapidity (η) and transverse-momentum (p T) distributions of charged particles
produced in proton–proton collisions are measured at the centre-of-mass energy s= 13 TeV …

We present a fully three-dimensional model providing initial conditions for energy and net-
baryon density distributions in heavy-ion collisions at arbitrary collision energy. The model …
