We report on the first measurement of an excess in the yield of J/$\psi$ at very low transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}< 0.3$ GeV/$c$) in peripheral hadronic Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV, performed by ALICE at the CERN…
The production of J/$\psi$ is measured at midrapidity ($|y|<0.9$) in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 5.02 and 13 TeV, through the dielectron decay channel, using the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The data sets used…

BES II data for the channel J/Psi -> gamma (piplus-piminus-piplus-piminus) are analysed from a sample of 58M J/Psi hadronic interactions. They reveal further detail in the J^{PC} = 0^{-+} sector for the 4pi channel. A broad 0^{-+} ->…
