One of the major results from the study of high energy heavy ion collisions is the observation of jet quenching. The suppression of the number of jets observed in heavy ion collisions relative to pp collisions at the same energy scaled by…
Interactions between jets and the quark-gluon plasma produced in heavy ion collisions are studied via the angular distributions of summed charged-particle transverse momenta (pt) with respect to both the leading and subleading jet axes in…
Measurement of Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=8.16$ TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.02$ TeV is reported. It is performed in the dimuon decay channel, through the detection of muons…
The production of the $\psi(2S)$ charmonium state was measured with ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=5.02$ TeV, in the dimuon decay channel. A significant signal was observed for the first time at LHC energies down to zero…
The ALICE apparatus at the LHC was designed and built to perform dedicated studies of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), a strongly interacting phase of QCD matter, expected to be created in heavy-ion collisions, where quarks and gluons are…
The ratios of the production cross sections between the excited $\Upsilon$(2S) and $\Upsilon$(3S) mesons and the $\Upsilon$(1S) ground state, detected via their decay into two muons, are studied as a function of the number of charged…
The depletion of gluons as the parton flux traverses a nucleus in a heavy-ion collision can influence the production rate of heavy-quark states. Thus the suppression of $J/\psi$ can be due to gluon depletion in the initial state in addition…
The study of nuclei and antinuclei production has proven to be a powerful tool to investigate the formation mechanism of loosely bound states in high-energy hadronic collisions. The first measurement of the production of ${\rm…
We estimate differential rapidity cross sections for $J/\Psi$, $\Psi(2S)$, $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, and $\Upsilon(3S)$ production; and $\Psi(2S)$ to $J/\Psi(1S)$, $\Upsilon(3S)$ to $\Upsilon(1S)$ suppression via Xe-Xe collisions at…
We present a new measurement of J/psi production in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 GeV/nucleon, from the data sample collected in year 2000 by the NA50 Collaboration, under improved experimental conditions with respect to previous years. With the…
We estimate differential rapidity cross sections for $\Psi$ and $\Upsilon$ production via p-Pb collisions at 8 TeV. We use the mixed heavy quark hybrid theory in which the $J/\Psi(1S),\Upsilon(1S),\Upsilon(2S)$ are standard mesons while the…
About 40-50 % of the quarkonium ground states J/psi(1S) and Upsilon(1S) produced in hadronic collisions originate from the decay of higher excitations. In a hot medium, these higher states are dissociated at lower temperatures than the more…
We report recent Upsilon measurements in p+p, d+Au and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV, and detail the analysis in U+U collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=193 GeV. Results on Upsilon production versus rapidity are consistent with pQCD…

We discuss the J/psi suppression in the framework of multiple collision models. From the analysis of the Pb-Pb NA50 data we conclude that the strength of the absorption has increased, but we find no clear evidence for the formation of the…
