Particle ratios provide insight into the hadrochemistry of the event and the mechanisms for particle production. In Pb-Pb collisions the relative multi-strange baryon yields exhibit an enhancement with respect to pp collisions, whereas the…
The heavy-ion collisions (A--A) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies have confirmed the production of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a new state of nuclear matter where quarks and gluons are deconfined. The light-flavour hadrons…
Studies of quarkonium production in heavy-ion collisions can be used for probing QGP properties. The suppression and regeneration of bound quarkonium states is sensitive to the medium properties. Modifications of the quarkonium polarization…

Heavy quarks, i.e. charm and beauty, are produced on a shorter time scale with respect to the strongly-interacting matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Therefore, they are unique probes to study the mechanisms of parton…

We report on the first dielectron measurement in pp collisons at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV with the ALICE detector system. The results are compared to the expected hadronic sources. The hadronic cocktail agrees to the measured dielectron continuum…
Heavy quarks are effective probes of the hot and dense nuclear matter, the quark-gluon plasma, produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Due to the short time scale characterising their production, heavy quarks experience the…
