Abstract:In high-energy heavy-ion collisions nuclei and hypernuclei emerge from the hot and dense fireball formed in the reaction region. Thanks to its excellent particle identification and momentum measurement performance, the ALICE detector allows for the identification of deuterons, tritons, 3 He and 4 He and the corresponding anti-nuclei. This is achieved via the measurement of their specific energy loss in the Time Projection Chamber and the velocity measurement by the Time-Of-Flight detector. Moreover, thanks to … Show more
