Modern precision experiments trapping low-energy particles require detailed simulations of particle trajectories and spin precession to determine systematic measurement limitations and apparatus deficiencies. We developed PENTrack, a tool…

The ALICE experiment has undergone a major upgrade for LHC Run 3 and will collect data at an interaction rate 50 times larger than before. The new computing scheme for Run 3 replaces the traditionally separate online and offline frameworks…

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, has been a pivotal tool in advancing our understanding of fundamental physics. By colliding heavy ions (such as lead ions), the LHC recreates…

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), where lead nuclei will collide at the unprecedented c.m.s. energy of 5.5 TeV per nucleon-nucleon pair, will offer new and unique opportunities for the study of the properties of strongly interacting matter…

A major upgrade of the ALICE experiment is in progress and will result in high-rate data taking during LHC Run 3 (2022-2024). The LHC interaction rate at Point 2 where the ALICE experiment is located will be increased to $50\ \mathrm{kHz}$…

Simulations to evaluate the feasibility of $\bar{n}$ identification and kinematic characterization via the hadronic charge exchange (CEX) interaction $n+\bar{n}\rightarrow p+\bar{p}$ are reported. The target neutrons are those composing the…

The strong suppression of high-$p_T$ hadrons observed in heavy ion collisions at RHIC indicates the interaction of high energy partons with a dense colored medium prior to hadronization. We review the main results from the high-$p_T$ hadron…

Recent results on short-lived hadronic resonances obtained with the ALICE detector at LHC energies are presented. These results include system-size and collision-energy evolution of transverse momentum spectra, yields and the ratios of…

Jet substructure observables have been used by experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as instruments to search for new physics as well as to study perturbative and nonperturbative processes in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Some…

The ALICE Experiment has replaced its Inner Tracking System with a 7-layer pixel-only tracker made out of more than 24000 monolithic active pixel sensor chips, in order to fulfill the requirements of the physics program of the LHC Run 3.…

Some physical aspects of the ALICE experiment at the LHC are considered with emphasis on possible probes of quark-gluon plasma, created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.

The ALICE experiment consists of a central barrel in the pseudorapidity range -0.9 < $\eta$ < 0.9 and of additional detectors covering about 3 units of pseudorapidity on either side of the central barrel. Such a geometry allows the tagging…

The ALICE Collaboration is developing a novel vertexing detector to extend the heavy-flavour physics programme of the experiment during Run 4 by improving the pointing resolution of the tracking, particularly at low transverse momentum. It…

CREME96 and GEANT4 are two well known particle transport codes through matter in space science. We present a comparison between the proton fluxes outgoing from an aluminium target, obtained by using both tools. The primary proton flux is…

Simulations of neutron background from rock for underground experiments are presented. Neutron propagation through two types of rock, lead and hydrocarbon material is discussed. The results show a reasonably good agreement between GEANT4,…

The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN consists of a central barrel, a muon spectrometer and of additional detectors for trigger and event classification purposes. The low transverse momentum threshold of the…

In the future ALICE heavy ion experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider input data rates of up to 25 GB/s have to be handled by the High Level Trigger (HLT) system, which has to scale them down to at most 1.25 GB/s before being written to…

As simulation system, the variety of physics processes implemented is one of the most important functionalities. In that sense, Geant4 is one of the most powerful simulation toolkits. Its flexibility and expansibility brought by…

The ALICE experiment at the LHC measures properties of the strongly interacting matter formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Such studies require accurate particle identification (PID). ALICE provides PID information via several…

The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) ring is designed to study the strongly interacting matter at extreme energy densities created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. In this paper we investigate correlations of heavy…
