The long-range azimuthal correlations in the nucleus-nucleus collisions are one of the signals of creation of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. At the LHC energies similar correlations are observed also in p+Pb and even pp collisions. After several years of successful operation of the Large Hadron Collider a wealth of data on pp, p+Pb and Pb+Pb collisions is available. This makes possible...
We discuss the energy and system size dependence of the charged-particle production at the LHC. The charged-particle multiplicity density (dN/deta), total charged-particle multiplicity (Ntot) and transverse momentum (pt) spectra are presented in the narrow centrality bins spanning 0-100% interval. The results are compared to phenomenological models and theoretical calculations based on...
Forward-backward (FB) multiplicity correlations carry important information on the early dynamics of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. In this talk, new data on forward-backward charged particle correlations and multiplicity fluctuations in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76$ TeV are presented. The data are recorded with the ALICE detector at the LHC. We focus on the...
