The excellent capabilities of the ALICE experiment for particle identification allow to measure the identified hadron production in a wide range of transverse momentum. For instance, using different techniques, the transverse momentum spectra of charged pions, kaons and protons have been measured from 0.2 GeV/c up to 20 GeV/c. In this talk we present the results on identified particle spectra,...

Due to its unique pseudorapidity coverage and the possibility of extending the measurements to low transverse momenta, LHCb provides important input to the understanding of particle production and energy flow in a kinematical range where QCD models have large uncertainties. The measurements are performed in the pseudorapidity range 2<η<5 which corresponds to the main detector acceptance of the...

An overview is given of recent CMS results related to small-x QCD physics, dijet production at large rapidity intervals, soft QCD and multi-parton interactions, hard diffraction, central exclusive processes and inelastic pp cross section.

Heavy Ion Physics
Parallel Talk
The production of heavy quarkonia (J/psi, psi', Chi_c as well as the Upsilon resonances) has long been considered as a promising tool to study the formation of a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in relativistic heavy ion collisions and has therefore been extensively studied experimentally notably at the SPS (CERN), at RHIC (BNL) and now at the LHC. This production was originally predicted to be...
