DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Prof. AGRAWAL\, Pankaj (Institute of Physics\, Bhuba
 neswar\, India)\nAt the LHC\, the processes with several particles in the 
 final\nstates occur routinely. These processes provide a new domain to tes
 t the standard model. Some of these processes can be \ndiscovery/confirmat
 ion channel for beyond the standard model\nscenarios also. Therefore\, it 
 is important to compute the contribution of the standard model to such mul
 tiparticle events. Furthermore\, due to large gluon luminosity at the LHC\
 , the gluon initiated processes can be quit important. We consider the pro
 duction of multi vector bosons via gluon fusion. In particular we consider
  the processes \ng g -> \\gamma Z g and g g -> \\gamma \\gamma Z. These pr
 ocesses get contribution from the pentagon type diagrams also. We calculat
 e these pentagon type (and box type) diagram contributions to the cross-se
 ction and distributions of these processes at hadron colliders. To do this
  calculation\, we use Oldenborgh-Vermaseren techniques to reduce tensor-lo
 op integrals to the scalar-loop integrals. We apply numerous checks to our
  calculations including cancellation of ultaviolate and infrared singulari
 ties as well as gauge invariance. Final numerical computation requires\nth
 e use of PVM to do parallel calculation on a cluster of computers. Our res
 ults for the cross-sections suggest that\nthese processes can be observed 
 after a few years of the running of LHC.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contribu

  be observable using the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) at the LHC\, and alth

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: JURCIUKONIS\, Darius (Vilnius University (LT))\nThe 
 smallness of the neutrino masses can be well understood within the seesaw 
 mechanism (type I). After spontaneous symmetry breaking of the Standard Mo
 del gauge group one obtains a $(n_L+n_R)\\times(n_L+n_R)$ Majorana mass ma
 trix $M_\\nu$ for neutrinos. The mixing between the $n_R$ right-handed neu
 trino singlets and the neutral parts of the $n_L$ lepton doublets gives ma
 sses for the neutrinos which are of the size expected from neutrino oscill
 ations.\nThe diagonalization of the mass matrix gives rise to a split spec
 trum consisting of heavy and light states of neutrinos given by $U^T M_\\n
 u U=\\mathrm{diag}(m_l\,m_h)$. For the case $n_R=1$ we diagonalize the neu
 tral fermion mass matrix with a rotation matrix $U$ determined by three co
 mplex angles. For the case $n_R=2$ we parameterize the mass matrix with a 
 rotation matrix $U$ determined by two complex angles and for the diagonali
 zation we apply the Grimus-Lavoura ansatz. In both cases we take $n_L=3$.\
 nWe calculate the 1-loop radiative corrections to the mass parameters of t
 he neutrino sector of the seesaw extension of the Standard Model which pro
 duce mass terms for the neutral leptons. With these ingredients we plan to
  look at the process $W^\\pm \\to \\tau^\\pm + \\nu \\to h_1^\\pm + h_2^\\
 mp + h_3^\\pm +\\nu+\\nu$ and plan to study the $\\tau$ polarization comin
 g from the decay of a $W$ boson in the data of the CMS experiment at LHC a
 nd thus determine restrictions to the parameters of the neutrino sector.\n

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Prof. NANDI\, Satyanarayan (Oklahoma State Universit
 y)\nNew physics at the LHC may appear as the discovery of lepto-quark gaug
 e bosons\, or di-quark resonances\, as those can be produced strongly via 
 gluon gluon fusion and giving distinctive signals in the final states. In 
 this talk\, I will discuss theoretical motivation and models giving rise t
 hese particles at the TeV scale. Lepto-quark in the TeV scale evade the ex
 isting strong bound from the flavor changing processes by unifying quarks 
 and leptons in higher dimensions\, and the breaking the gauge symmetry to 
 the Standard Model via compactification. This type of models gives additio
 nal new quarks and leptons\, and a possible dark matter candidate which ca
 n be explored at the LHC. The models of di-quarks give rise to new physics
  contribution in the t t as well as single top production which can be exp
 lored at the LHC. This talk will review this field\, and also discuss our 
 recent work (arXiv1201.5616 [hep-ph]\, submitted to Phys. Rev. D\, and arX
 iv1201.2917 [hep-ph]\, to appear in Phys. Rev. D).\n\nhttp://indico.cern.c

 ements were collected by the ALICE detector in 2010 and 2011. By comparing
  strangeness data where the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is not expected to be
  produced (pp collisions) with data where the energy-density of the collis
 ion is sufficient to produce the QGP (central and mid-central Pb-Pb collis
 ions)\, we are able to investigate the properties of the QGP. We character
 ise the matter created in the collision by presenting strange and multi-st
 range particle spectra\, yields\, and transverse momenta in the context of
  increasing strangeness number\, varying collision energy\, and the number
  of nucleons participating in the collision (N$_{part}$).\n\nhttp://indico

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: SPEARMAN\, William Robert (Harvard University (US))\
 nIn 2012 the LHC will be operated in a mode leading to up to 40 inelastic 
 pp collisions per bunch crossing\, so-called "pile-up". The reconstruction
  and identification of muons produced in a hard collisions is difficult in
  this challenging environment. Di-muon decays of J/psi mesons and Z bosons
  have been used to study the muon reconstruction and identification effici
 ency of the ATLAS detector as a function of the muon transverse momentum f
 rom p_T =4 GeV to p_T = 100 GeV and the number of inelastic collisions per
  event. The results show a steep efficiency turn-on curve reaching its pla
 teau value of 100% at p_T approx 6 GeV and no dependence of the muon recon
 struction efficiency on the amount pile-up. The studies also reveal that t
 he use of inner detector tracks allows us to distinguish between isolated 
 muons and non-isolated muons produced in jets with high separation power e
 ven at the highest pile-up levels.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDi

 entification of jets originating from b-quarks (b-tagging)is a crucial too
 l for the LHC physics program\, both for precision measurements and in sea
 rches for new particles. One important ingredient when using b-tagging in 
 physics analyses is the determination of the probability to mistakenly b-t
 ag a jet originating from a c-quark (c-tag efficiency). The optimal sample
  for the measurement of the c-tag efficiency would be a clean sample of je
 ts originating from c-quarks. The sample of jets associated to reconstruct
 ed $D^*$ mesons (through the decay chain $D^* \\to D^0(K \\pi \\pi)$ is qu
 ite close to this ideal case since most $D^*$ mesons originate from c-quar
 k hadronization. The c-tag efficiency has been measured by comparing the r
 eduction in the yield of $D^*$ mesons before and after the b-tagging requi
 rement of the associated jet. The contamination from $D^*$ mesons that ori
 ginate from b-hadron decays has been taken into account using a fit to the
  $D^0$ pseudo-proper time distribution.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contribut

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: WENDLAND\, Dennis Patrick (Institut fuer Physik)\nTo
 p-quark precision measurements are of central importance to the LHC physic
 s program. The top-quark is the heaviest known fundamental particle with u
 nique properties within the Standard Model (SM). Its large couplings to th
 e Higgs boson\, and being the only quark that decays before hadronisation 
 make it sensitive to new physics beyond the SM. Among the  places to look 
 for deviations from the SM are new quarks families that can appear as a fo
 urth family with Higgs\, a “strong” fourth family without Higgs or vec
 tor-like quarks. A potential  extension for the SM would be the adjonction
  a 4th family of heavy chiral fermions that could provide new sources of C
 P violation to explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe\, a
 nd allow for a heavier Higgs boson while remaining consistent with other  
 precision electroweak studies. This poster will review various searches fo
 r 4th generation quarks performed using data collected in 7 TeV LHC proton
 -proton collisions with the ATLAS detector.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contr

 thus of great importance and it is crucial to understand their performance
  with data-driven measurements of efficiencies and fake rates. Since the t
 op quark almost exclusively decays to a W boson and a b-quark\, a sample o
 f top anti-top events is ideal for studying the b-tagging performance. Fin
 al states containing one or two leptons have been used to measure the b-ta
 gging efficiency\, either by counting the number of b-tagged jets or by ap
 plying kinematical fit methods to extract a pure sample of b-jets. The cal
 ibration methods based on top anti-top events are especially important bec
 ause they can provide measurements of the b-tagging efficiency also for je

  precision easurements in the top quark sector as well as in the search fo
 r the Higgs boson and new phenomena\, the suppression of background proces
 ses containing predominantly light-flavour jets using b-tagging is of grea
 t use. In order for b-tagging to be used in physics analyses the efficienc
 y with which a jet originating from a b-quark is tagged by a b-tagging alg
 orithm needs to be measured. The b-tag efficiency can measured with two co
 mplementary methods in a sample of jets containing muons by exploiting the
  transverse momentum of the muon with respect to the jet axis (pTrel). One
  method fits pTrel emplates to the data to extract the fraction of b-jets 
 in the sample before and after b-tagging while the other method makes use 
 of two samples with different vour composition and two uncorrelated b-tagg

  inside one of the colliding protons. Thus\, the measurement of the top-qu

 k PDF and the d-quark PDF for a momentum fraction x of the incoming light 
 quarks and can provide complementary input to constrain these PDF in the r

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dr. ZAPP\, Korinna Christine (Institute for Particle
  Physics Phenomenology\, Durham University)\nThe strong modification of hi
 gh transverse momentum particle production in heavy ion collisions ('jet q
 uenching') was one of the major discoveries at RHIC and is currently studi
 ed in much greater detail at the LHC. While jet quenching gives access to 
 a variety of phenomena in QCD\, the wider kinematic reach of the LHC and t
 he possibility to reconstruct jets in heavy ion collisions challenge theor
 etical calculations. This talk will be concerned with the interpretation o
 f LHC jet quenching data and recent developments of the theoretical tools.

 (US))\nWe present results of the CMS experiment from PbPb collisions at $\
 \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76$ TeV\, probing quark and gluon matter at unprecedente
 d values of energy density. The capabilities of the CMS apparatus allows u
 s to investigate various hard probes\, using the calorimetry\, muon and tr
 acking systems covering a large range in pseudorapidity\, complemented by 
 a flexible two-level trigger system. One of the most important early obser
 vations was that dijets at high pT are found to be increasingly unbalanced
  as a function of collision centrality. The overall pT-imbalance can be re
 covered by including tracks found at low pT and at large angles with respe
 ct to the jet axis. Furthermore\, the pT-distribution of charged tracks (j
 et fragments) has been measured using various jet triggers in pp collision
 s at 7 TeV\, and a reference spectrum is constructed to compare to PbPb co
 llisions at 2.76 TeV/nucleon pair. The inclusive production of isolated pr
 ompt photons has also been studied in pp and PbPb collisions. CMS is also 
 well equipped to measure muons and dimuons in the high multiplicity enviro
 nment of heavy ion collisions. Inclusive and differential measurements of 
 the Z and W boson yields show no sign of modification with respect to NLO 
 pQCD calculations. Dimuon decays of the J/psi particle and the Upsilon fam
 ily are also investigated and results will be presented.\n\nhttp://indico.

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: ZURITA\, José Francisco (University of Zurich)\nThe
  current searches at the LHC have set strong bounds on the masses of gluin
 os and the squarks of the first and second generation. At the same time\, 
 the hints of a Higgs boson at 125 GeV imply some degree of fine-tuning fro
 m radiative corrections to the lightest Higgs mass. Moreover\, the rate in
 to photons seems to be enhanced with respect to the SM\, while the ZZ chan
 nel is reduced (albeit the SM is still compatible at the 2-sigma level).\n
 In this talk I will review how the previous issues can be addressed. If th
 e stop is about a couple-hundred GeV\, the SUSY still remains as a natural
  solution to the hierarchy problem.\nI will also show how the MSSM can acc
 ommodate a 125 GeV Higgs and also how extensions of the MSSM can alleviate
  the fine-tuning on the Higgs mass. I will also discuss recent literature\
 , showing how both in the MSSM and its extensions one can find suitable wa
 ys to accommodate the measured Higgs rates into photons and Z bosons.\n\nh

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: CASTELLO\, Roberto (Universite Catholique de Louvain
  (BE))\nThe associated production of jets and vector bosons allows for str
 ingent tests of perturbative QCD calculations and is sensitive to the poss
 ible presence of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The mechanism of p
 roduction of heavy quarks in association with a W or a Z\, in particular\,
  is only partially understood. A measurement of jet production rates in as
 sociation with W and Z bosons in proton-proton collisions at a 7 TeV cente
 r-of-mass energy is presented\, using data collected with the CMS detector
 . The measured jet multiplicity distributions corrected for efficiency and
  unfolded for detector effects are compared with theoretical predictions. 
 Measurements of the Z+b-tagged jet(s) cross sections and angular correlati
 ons are presented. Finally\, results for the W+c production rate are also 
 shown.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.py?contribId=100&sessi

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: CUCIUC\, Mihai (Horia Hulubei National Institute of 
 Physics and Nuclear Enginee)\nThe Tile Calorimeter (TileCal)\, the central
  section of the hadronic calorimeter of the ATLAS experiment\, is a key de
 tector component to detect hadrons\, jets and taus and to measure the miss
 ing transverse energy. Due to the very good muon signal to noise ratio it 
 assists the spectrometer in the identification and reconstruction of muons
 . TileCal is built of steel and scintillating tiles coupled to optical fib
 ers and read out by hotomultipliers. The calorimeter is equipped with syst
 ems that allow to monitor and to calibrate each stage of the readout syste
 m exploiting different signal sources: laser light\, charge injection and 
 a radioactive source. The calorimeter performance and its stability has be
 en evaluated with the rich sample of collision data in 2011 but also with 
 calibration data\, random triggered data\, cosmic muons and splash events.
  Results on the absolute energy scale calibration precision\, on the energ
 y and timing uniformity\, on the time resolution and on the synchronizatio
 n precision are presented. Besides\, the TileCal minimum bias current read
 out provides a precise monitoring of the instantaneous luminosity. The res
 ults demonstrate that the Tile Calorimeter is performing well within the d
 esign requirements and is giving essential input to the physics results.\n

 y and electroweak measurements but also in detector related studies like t
 he determination of the missing transverse energy scale. Optimal identific
 ation of hadronically decaying tau leptons is achieved by using detailed i
 nformation from tracking and calorimeter detector components. Variables de
 scribing the properties of calorimeter energy deposits and track reconstru
 ction within tau candidates are combined in multi-variate discriminants\, 
 to achieve high rejection against backgrounds. The identification efficien
 cies are  measured by W to tau nu and Z to tau tau events\, and compared w
 ith the prediction of the Monte Carlo simulation.  The energy scale uncert
 ainties for tau leptons are determined by investigating single hadron calo
 rimeter response\, as well as kinematic distributions in Z to tau tau even

 oduced in radiative decays of an Υ meson (Υ → γA0). We saw no evidenc
 e of the A0 decaying into mu+mu-\, tau+tau-\, hadrons\, or invisible final
  states with a sample of 122 million Υ(3S)\, 99 million Υ(2S)\, and 23 m
 illion Υ(1S) from Υ(2\,3S) decays collected at the PEP II B-factory.  We
  set upper limits on product branching fractions B(Υ→γA0)xB(A0→vario
 us states) as low as 10^-6 for A0 masses from threshold up to 9GeV/c^2.  A
 s a result\, we exclude a large fraction of parameters space for Next to M

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mr. TONERO\, Alberto (SISSA/INFN)\nQuark contact int
 eractions are an important signal of new physics. A model in which the pre
 sence of a symmetry protects these new interactions from giving large corr
 ections in flavor changing processes at low energies is introduced. It pro
 vides the basic set of operators which must be considered to contribute to
  the high-energy processes. The discussion of their experimental signature
  at the LHC\, in the case where the number of contributing operators are j
 ust two\, will be presented.  For a representative integrated luminosity o
 f 200 inverse pb and 7 TeV of center of mass energy\, is it possible to sh
 ow that the presence of two operators significantly modifies the bound on 
 the characteristic energy scale of the contact interactions which is obtai
 ned by keeping a single operator.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDis

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: ANDREWS\, Warren (Univ. of California San Diego (US)
 )\nWe present a search for new physics in the final state of a leptonicall
 y decaying Z boson and missing transverse energy (MET) utilizing the full 
 2011 dataset collected by the CMS detector. Two complementary search regio
 ns are investigated. The first requires a leptonic Z and two or more jets\
 , and searches in the high MET tail. The second applies additional require
 ments to increase sensitivity to electroweak production of new physics. Th
 ese requirements include a veto on b tagged jets and a cut on the dijet in
 variant mass to select jets from a W or Z decay\, both of which highly sup
 press Standard Model (SM) backgrounds. These searches are sensitive to a v
 ariety of new physics scenarios involving Z bosons\, including electroweak
  production of particles which decay to Zs. Fake MET from SM Z+Jets backgr
 ound is modeled using a data driven MET templates technique\, and ttbar ba
 ckground is predicted using opposite flavor dilepton events.\n\nhttp://ind

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: PACHMAYER\, Yvonne Chiara (Ruprecht-Karls-Universita
 et Heidelberg (DE))\nA Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) is the dedica
 ted detector setup to study the high density de-confined state of strongly
  interacting matter\, known as Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP)\, which is created
  in heavy ion collisions at the LHC at CERN. Charm or beauty quarks are am
 ong the most interesting and powerful probes to investigate the properties
  of the QGP\, because they are produced on a very short time scale in init
 ial hard scattering processes and thus they experience the whole history o
 f the collision. The investigation of medium modifications of heavy flavou
 r observables will shed light on the properties of the medium and the natu
 re of the parton-medium interactions. ALICE recorded Pb-Pb data at sqrt(s_
 NN) = 2.76 TeV in 2010 and 2011. This talk will focus on the latest result
 s of open heavy flavour production using hadronic D meson decays at centra
 l rapidity\, as well as semi-electronic and semi-muonic decays of D and B 
 mesons\, at central and forward rapidities\, respectively. The correspondi
 ng nuclear modification factors\, comparisons of the yields in proton-prot
 on and heavy ion collisions\, will be presented as a function of transvers
 e momentum and collision centrality. First elliptic flow measurements will
  be shown as well. Elliptic flow describes the azimuthal momentum space an
 isotropy of particle emission from non-central heavy ion collisions in the
  transverse plane. It is sensitive to the early stages of system evolution
  and thus provides information on thermalization.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch

 in top pair production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at a centre-
 of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The data are collected by the CMS experiment duri
 ng the year 2011. Cross sections are measured differentially as a function
  of various variables\, including the transverse momentum and rapidity of 
 the (anti)top quark as well as the top-antitop system\, as well as multipl
 icity and transverse momenta of jets produced in addition to the top pair.
  The cross sections are corrected for detector effects to the level of sta
 ble particles. The results are compared with various Monte Carlo models\, 
 as well as with theory predictions. The overall consistency of the feature
 s of top pair production with expectations from the standard model is inve

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: SHAH\, Nausheen ()\nRecently\, an excess of events c
 onsistent with a Higgs boson with mass of about 125 GeV was reported by th
 e CMS and ATLAS LHC experiments. The mass is consistent with the values th
 at may be obtained in minimal supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Mo
 del (SM)\, with third generation squarks masses at the TeV scale with larg
 e mixing. The apparently enhanced photon production rate and suppressed ZZ
  production rate associated with this potential Higgs may be the result of
  light third generation sleptons in the presence of large mixing. Such lar
 ge mixing and large coupling of the staus to the SM-Higgs boson may be obt
 ained for large values of tanβ and moderate values of the Higgsino mass p
 arameter\, μ. We study the phenomenological properties of this scenario\,
  including precision electroweak data\, Dark Matter\, the muon anomalous m
 agnetic moment and the evolution of the soft supersymmetry breaking parame
 ters to high energies. We also analyze the possible collider signatures of
  third generation sleptons and the prospects of finding evidence of their 
 production at the 8 TeV and the 14 TeV LHC.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contr

  range of new physics phenomena can produce modifications to the dilepton 
 mass spectra predicted by the standard model (SM) such as quark/lepton com
 positeness\, extra dimensions\, and new gauge bosons. The predicted form o
 f these deviations is often either a resonance or an excess in the number 
 of events in the spectra at high mass. This work presents a search for con
 tact interactions in the dielectron and dimuon channels using data from pr
 oton-proton collisions produced by the LHC at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and recorded
  by the ATLAS detector. The data sample\, collected in 2011\, corresponds 
 to an integrated luminosity of 5 fb-1. No significant deviations from the 
 standard model are observed. Using a Bayesian approach\, we set 95% CL low
 er limits on the energy scale of llqq contact interactions.\n\nhttp://indi

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: KIM\, Dong Jo (University of Jyvaskyla (FI))\nIn-med
 ium modification of jet fragmentation functions in heavy ion collisions is
  thought to be a direct manifest of the parton energy loss in the medium. 
 Despite the large energy loss signaled by the large imbalance of jet trans
 verse energies in di-jet events[1] and by the suppression of large transve
 rse momentum hadrons [2]\, it has been found that jet fragmentation functi
 ons in Pb-Pb collisions are very similar to the ones measured in p-p colli
 sions[3].\nThe ALICE experiment has utilized particle correlations to addr
 ess modification of jet properties in Pb-Pb collisions compared with p-p c
 ollisions at the LHC. Furthermore\, particle correlations were used to sep
 arate particles associated with the jet and those produced with the bulk\,
  as well as to study number and transverse momentum correlation functions 
 in heavy ion collisions. These might help to quantify medium modifications
  of the parton shower and the response of the surrounding medium.\nIn this
  talk\, we present the latest results on $\\Delta\\phi$\, $\\Delta\\eta$ a
 nd $\\Delta\\p_{T}$ correlations as well as jet-fragmentation transverse m
 omentum distribution as a function of centrality and transverse momentum. 
 Identified particle ratios of particles associated with the jet and those 
 from the bulk will be discussed.\n[1] Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (2010) 252303.\

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: WATTS\, Gordon (University of Washington (US))\nThe 
 ATLAS collaboration calibrates its b-tagging algorithms using a number of 
 data-driven methods. The b-tagging algorithms\, used to separate b-quark j
 ets from light-quark jets\, are widely used in top\, Higgs\, and Exotics a
 nalyses in ATLAS. The algorithm’s performance is measured for light-quar
 k jets\, charm jets\, and bottom jets. In some cases multiple methods can 
 be used to measure the performance: methods using di-jet data and a pure s
 ample of top-quark pair production are be used to measure the bottom-quark
  jet performance. These methods have complementary strengths – the di-je
 t methods tend to have the smallest errors at low jet energy\, and the ttb
 ar methods tend to have smaller errors at high jet energy. We used a minim
 um likelihood method to fit the results\, profiling common systematics\, t
 o combine the results. For results on common data we have also understood 
 the statistical correlation of our methods. This poster will describe the 
 details of the combination.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.p

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: PEREIRA DA COSTA\, Hugo Denis Antonio (Service de Ph
 ysique Nucleaire)\nThe production of heavy quarkonia (J/psi\, psi'\, Chi_c
  as well as the Upsilon resonances) has long been considered as a promisin
 g tool to study the formation of a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in relativisti
 c heavy ion collisions and has therefore been extensively studied experime
 ntally notably at the SPS (CERN)\, at RHIC (BNL) and now at the LHC. This 
 production was originally predicted to be suppressed in the presence of a 
 QGP with respect to binary-scaled production rates in pp collisions via a 
 Debye-like color screening mechanism\, provided that the temperature (or e
 quivalently the energy density) of the QGP is high enough. However\, it ha
 s been proposed since then that heavy quarkonia production could also be e
 nhanced due to the coalescence of uncorrelated heavy quark pairs from the 
 hot medium. New measurements performed at the LHC at unprecedentedly high 
 energies should help disentangle these two competing mechanisms.\nALICE is
  the LHC experiment dedicated to the study of heavy ion collisions. It can
  measure heavy quarkonia production at both mid- (|y| \n\nhttp://indico.ce
