Correction of the baseline fluctuations in the GEM-based ALICE TPC Open
To operate the ALICE Time Projection Chamber in continuous mode during the Run 3 and Run 4 data-taking periods of the Large Hadron Collider, the multi-wire proportional chamber-based readout was replaced with gas-electron multipliers. As e…

Towards development of Spark-Less-Avalanche-Microstructures Open
Spark-Less-Amplification-Microstructures are a new type of gaseous detectors, which should allow overcoming the discharge limitations of the current MPGD technologies. Preliminary studies revealed that sparks usually appear in the narrow r…

Studying the impact of humidity on the performance of THGEMs Open
In this study, we investigate the impact of humidity on the performance of a THGEM operated with an Ar-CO 2 gas mixture. The water content is introduced in a range of 0–4000 ppmV. It is observed that the presence of increased humidity does…
Systematic investigation of critical charge limits in Thick GEMs Open
We present discharge probability studies performed with a single Thick Gas\nElectron Multiplier (THGEM) irradiated with alpha particles in Ar-CO$_2$ and\nNe-CO$_2$ mixtures. We observe a clear dependency of the discharge stability on\nthe …

Observation of a multiplicity dependence in the $p_{\rm T}$-differential charm baryon-to-meson ratios in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV Open
The production of prompt D0, Ds+, and Λc+ hadrons, and their ratios, Ds+/D0 and Λc+/D0, are measured in proton–proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV at midrapidity (|y|<0.5) with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The measurements are perfo…
