LHC Pilot Run
LHC Pilot Run After a span of more than two and a half years of intense and challenging activities of upgrading or replacing subdetectors and electronics, as well as of trigger and data-acquisition systems, the huge magnet doors of ALICE are now closed. The detector is getting ready with detector commissioning activities to embark on

D mesons constrain QGP diffusion coefficient
D mesons constrain QGP diffusion coefficient Precision measurements of prompt D0, D+, and D*+ production in heavy-ion collisions are fundamental to constrain the properties of the QGP. In particular, the measurements performed with the data sample of Pb-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV collected with the ALICE detector in 2018, provided a more precise determination of the
