We present transverse momentum distributions of charged particles and identified hadrons in pp and Pb-Pb collisions, measured by ALICE at the LHC. The Pb-Pb data are presented in intervals of the collision centrality and cover transverse momenta up to 50 GeV/c. Nuclear medium effects are studied in terms of the nuclear modification factor R_AA. The results indicate strong suppression of...

We report the measurement of transverse momentum spectra of the charged hadrons and photons in √sNN = 2.76 TeV PbPb collisions with the CMS detector. The nuclear modification factors are constructed by dividing the PbPb pT spectra,
normalized to the number of binary collisions, by the pp references.

I will discuss the generic features of parton energy loss effects on the quenching of large-pT hadrons, as well as more quantitative studies. The differences expected from RHIC to LHC will be highlighted. The quenching of prompt photons will also be discussed in detail. Finally, I will stress the need for precise baseline measurements of hadrons and photons in pp and pPb collisions.
