Iouri BELIKOV (IPHC, CNRS-IN2P3)23/05/2011, 17:30Global and collective dynamicsParallelWe present the study of K0s and Lambda production performed with the ALICE experiment at the LHC in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt(sNN)=2.76 TeV and pp collisions at sqrt(s)=0.9 and 7 TeV. The K0s and Lambda particles are reconstructed via their V0 decay topology allowing their identification up to high transverse momenta. The corresponding baryon/meson ratios as a function of transverse...Go to contribution page

D.D. Chinellato (Instituto de Fisica Gleb Wataghin (IFGW) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas)23/05/2011, 17:50Hadron thermodynamics and chemistryParallelThe production of charged multi-strange particles is studied with the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. Measurements of the central rapidity yields of $\Xi^{-}$ and $\Omega^{-}$ baryons, as well as their antiparticles, are presented as a function of transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) for inelastic pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=7\:TeV$ and compared to existing measurements performed at the same and/or...Go to contribution page

Simone Schuchmann (Institut fuer Kernphysik-Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe Univ.)23/05/2011, 18:10JetsParallelSignificant suppression of unidentified charged particles at large transverse momentum has been observed in central Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. Measurements of identified particles will provide more detailed information on the suppression mechanism. The production of Lambda and K0s at mid-rapidity in pp and Pb-Pb at sqrt(sNN) = 2.76 TeV is studied with the ALICE detector at the LHC. Lambda...Go to contribution page

Dr Anton Andronic (Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung mbH (GSI))23/05/2011, 18:30Heavy flavor and quarkonia productionParallelIn our model, both the light (u,d,s) quark sector and charm(onium) have found a unified description, thus providing very different probes for a possible delineation of the phase boundary between deconfined and hadronic matter produced in nucleus-nucleus collisions from low (AGS) energies up to RHIC energy. A purely thermal production (at chemical freeze-out) appears natural for...Go to contribution page

Dr Deepali Sharma (Weizmann Institute of Science)23/05/2011, 18:50Hadron thermodynamics and chemistryParallelThe PHENIX experiment at RHIC has carried out systematic measurements of $\phi$ and $\omega$ mesons in $p+p$, $d+Au$, $Cu+Cu$ and $Au+Au$ collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. Consistent results have been obtained using leptonic and hadronic decay modes as well as different analysis techniques. In $p+p$ collisions, the transverse momentum distributions of $\omega$ and $\phi$, as well...Go to contribution page

Alessandro De Falco (Univ. + INFN Cagliari)23/05/2011, 19:10Electromagnetic probesParallelLow mass meson ($\rho^0, \omega, \phi$) production provides key information on the hot and dense state of strongly interacting matter produced in high-energy heavy ion collisions. Among them, strangeness enhancement can be accessed through the measurement of $\phi$ meson production, while the measurement of the $\rho$ spectral function can be used to reveal in-medium modifications of hadron...Go to contribution page
