Measurement of D meson production in p-Pb collisions with the ALICE detector Grazia Luparello (NIKHEF and Utrecht University) for the ALICE Collaboration The ALICE Collaboration has measured the production of prompt $\rm{D^0}$, $\rm{D^{+}}$ and $\rm{D^{*+}}$ mesons in Pb-Pb and pp collisions by fully reconstructing their hadronic decays. A large suppression of D meson yield in the most...

Measurement of electrons from heavy-flavour hadron decays in pp and p-Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC Markus Heide for the ALICE Collaboration, WWU Münster Charm and beauty quark production in hadronic collisions occurs mostly in initial parton scattering processes with high virtuality. The measurement of heavy-flavour decay electrons in pp collisions with the ALICE detector...

Fabio Filippo Colamaria, for the ALICE Collaboration ALICE measured a significant suppression of D-meson production in a wide momentum range in central Pb-Pb collisions with respect to the expectation based on the cross section measured in pp collisions, scaled by the number of nucleon-nucleon collisions. This effect can be, at least partially, attributed to the energy loss by charm quarks...

56. Inclusive J/psi production in p-Pb collisions with ALICE at the LHC

Production of charmonia, bound state of c and cbar quarks, is an intense research activity, both experimentally and theoretically. In addition, the peculiar properties of some of the charmonium states, like their small size (< 1 fm) and strong binding energy (several hundred MeV), make them ideal probes of the strongly interacting matter, the so-called Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), formed in...

64. Two-particle correlations in p-Pb collisions at the LHC with ALICE

The double ridge structure previously observed in Pb-Pb collisions has also been recently observed in high-multiplicity p-Pb collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.02 TeV. These systems show a long-range structure (large separation in ∆η) at the near- (∆ϕ = 0) and away-side (∆ϕ = π) of the trigger particle. In order to understand the nature of this effect the two-particle correlation analysis has...

71. Transverse Momentum Distributions of Identified Particles in p–Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 5.02 TeV

Recent measurements of di-hadron correlations in p–Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 5.02 TeV revealed a double-ridge pattern, reminiscent of the one observed in Pb–Pb collisions. This raises the question of the possible existence of collective effects in high multiplicity p–Pb collisions. Further insight into the observed phenomena can be gained by studying the evolution of spectral shapes with...
