We present the first measurements with a new collinear laser spectroscopy setup at the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System utilizing its unique capability to deliver neutron-rich refractory metal isotopes produced by the spontaneous…
After more than half a century since the first predictions of the so-called "island of stability of superheavy nuclei", exploring the limits of nuclear stability at highest atomic numbers is still one of the most prominent challenges in…
A new method, based on comparing isotopic yield ratios measured at forward and sideward polar angles and on cross-bombarding heavy nuclei with different neutron-to-proton ratios, is used to quantify the stopping power of nuclear matter in…
Hypernuclei are bound states of hyperons (Y) and nucleons (N). Measurements on their yields can help us investigate their production mechanisms. In particular, the ${}^5_{\Lambda}$He and $^{4}_{\Lambda}$H(e) are substantially tighter bound…
A direct comparison and analysis of published spectra for the 7$\alpha$ disassembly of $^{28}$Si projectiles excited in collisions with $^{12}$C at 35 MeV/u reveals significant agreement in the derived excitation energies of high excitation…
The first measurement of prompt D$^{*+}$-meson spin alignment in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions with respect to the direction orthogonal to the reaction plane is presented. The spin alignment is quantified by measuring the element…
We present the measurement of the $p_{\rm T}$-differential production cross section of $\omega$ mesons in pp and p$-$Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV at midrapidity by ALICE. In addition, the first measurement of the nuclear…
This paper presents the primary charged-particle multiplicity distributions in proton-lead collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV. The distributions are reported for non-single…
Correlations between event-by-event fluctuations of anisotropic flow harmonics are measured in Pb$-$Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV, as recorded by the ALICE detector at the LHC. This study presents…
Differential two-particle normalized cumulants ($R_2$) and transverse momentum correlations ($P_2$) are measured as a function of the relative pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle difference $( \Delta \eta, \Delta \varphi )$ of charged…
Details of the nuclear structure of $^{\rm 129}$Xe, such as the quadrupole deformation and the nuclear diffuseness, are studied by extensive measurements of anisotropic-flow-related observables in Xe--Xe collisions at a centre-of-mass…
Strange hadrons have been suggested as sensitive probes of the properties of the nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions. At few-GeV collision energies, the formed medium is baryon-rich due to baryon stopping effect. In these…
Measurements of jet substructure observables in heavy-ion (HI) collisions provide powerful constraints on the microscopic mechanisms of interactions between energetic partons and the quark--gluon plasma (QGP). Although there has been…
The probability to observe a specific number of strange and multi-strange hadrons ($n_s$), denoted as $P(n_s)$, is measured by ALICE at midrapidity ($|y|<0.5$) in $\sqrt{s} = 5.02$ TeV proton-proton (pp) collisions, dividing events into…
Two-particle angular correlations explore particle production mechanisms and underlying event-wide phenomena present in the systems created in hadronic collisions. These correlations are examined as a function of rapidity and…
The centrality dependence of strange ($K_S^0$, $\Lambda + \bar{\Lambda}$) and multi-strange ($\Xi^- + \bar{\Xi^+}$, $\Omega^- + \bar{\Omega}^+$) hadron production is measured by ALICE in the LHC lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions at a…
In this document, experimental nuclear structure data are evaluated for 16Be. The details of each reaction populating 16Be levels are compiled and evaluated. The combined results provide a set of adopted values that include level energies,…

(Multi-)strange particle production rates and transverse momentum distributions are measured at midrapidity ($|y| < 0.5$) as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity density by the ALICE experiment at the LHC, using proton-proton…
Machine learning techniques are increasingly being applied in high-energy nuclear physics data analysis thanks to their outstanding performance. One key challenge in such applications is the construction of training samples that can…
