Description

We present the analysis of transverse momentum ($\textit{p}_\text{T}$) spectra of primary charged particles in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_\text{NN}}=5.02\,\text{TeV}$ and $\sqrt{s_\text{NN}}=2.76\,\text{TeV}$.
For both data sets, we employ improved analysis methods that result in a significant reduction of systematic uncertainties with respect to previous analyses.
We discuss the evolution of the $\textit{p}_\text{T}$ spectrum with collision energy and the nuclear modification factors ($\text{R}_\text{PbPb}$), which are compared with theoretical model calculations.
