Minimal material, maximum coverage: Silicon Tracking System for high-occupancy conditions Open
Silicon strip sensors have long been a reliable technology for particle detection. Here, we push the limits of silicon tracking detectors by targeting an unprecedentedly low material budget of 2%-7% $X_0$ in an 8-layer 4 m$^2$ detector des…
From 3D to 5D tracking: SMX ASIC-based double-sided micro-strip detectors for comprehensive space, time, and energy measurements Open
We present the recent development of a lightweight detector capable of accurate spatial, timing, and amplitude resolution of charged particles. The technology is based on double-sided double-metal p+ – n – n+ micro-strip silicon sensors, u…

Functional characterization of modules for the Silicon Tracking System of the CBM experiment Open
The CBM experiment is a fixed-target heavy-ion physics experiment at the future FAIR facility, designed to explore the QCD phase diagram at high baryon-net densities and moderate temperatures. To address its complex physics program, the ex…

Low-momentum direct photon measurement in Cu$+$Cu collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200$ GeV Open
We have measured direct photons for $p_T<5~$GeV/$c$ in minimum bias and 0\%--40\% most central events at midrapidity for Cu$+$Cu collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200$ GeV. The $e^{+}e^{-}$ contribution from quasi-real direct virtual photons…
Centrality Dependence of Particle Production in p–A collisions measured by ALICE Open
We present the centrality dependence of particle production in p-Pb\ncollisions at sqrt(s_NN)= 5.02 TeV measured by the ALICE experiment, including\nthe pseudo-rapidity and transverse momentum spectra, with a special emphasis on\nthe event…
First Run II results from ALICE Open
\nThe ALICE Collaboration is collecting data with both Minimum Bias and Muon triggers with pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV in the ongoing LHC Run II. An excellent performance of tracking and PID in the central barrel and in the muon spectrome…
ALICE @ LHC: Status and Highlights Open
\nALICE is the dedicated heavy-ion experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. After a two-year long shutdown, the LHC restarted its physics programme in June 2015 with proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at √…
