Global and collective dynamics
Parallel
We 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...

Hadron thermodynamics and chemistry

The 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...

Significant 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...

Heavy flavor and quarkonia production
Parallel
In 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...

Hadron thermodynamics and chemistry
Parallel
The 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...

Electromagnetic probes
Parallel
Low 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...
