چکیده

Fluctuations of thermodynamic quantities are fundamental for the study of the QGP phase transition. The ALICE experiment is well suited for precise event-by-event measurements of various quantities. In this article, we review the capabilities of ALICE to study the fluctuations of several key observables such as the net charge, the temperature, and the particle ratios. Among the observables related to correlations, we review the balance functions and the long range correlations.

Global event properties in proton-proton physics with ALICE

ALICE is a unique opportunity for studying low pt physics and minimum bias events, and consequently for hunting substructures in strong interactions. The general question concerning global event properties in pp and pp physics is indeed whether substructures can be seen in the data in a model-independent way. In other terms, can we identify the interface between perturbative and non-perturbativ...

ALICE diffractive physics in p-p and Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC

The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider LHC is presently being commissioned. ALICE consists of a central barrel, a muon spectrometer and neutron calorimeters at 00. Additional detectors for event classification and trigger purposes are located on both sides of the central barrel. The geometry of the ALICE detector allows the implementation of a diffractive double gap trigger by requir...

The influence of event attributes on tourist’s loyalty: Evidence from the Ashoura event in Yazd City

Many studies have found that the perceived authenticity of cultural and religious events affects event satisfaction and loyalty. Little is currently known about how perceived authenticity is affected by the facilities, such as food and the availability of information, which are independent determinants of satisfaction and loyalty. This study aims to examine the antecedents of event loyalty. Que...

ALICE pp physics programme

The physics programme of the ALICE experiment at CERN-LHC comprises besides studies of high-energy heavy-ion collisions measurements of proton-proton interactions at unprecedented energies, too. This paper focuses on the global event characterisation in terms of the multiplicity distribution of charged hadrons and mean transverse momentum. These bulk observables become accessible because the de...

First results on the event – by – event fluctuations and correlations in Pb – Pb collisions at √ s NN = 2 . 76 TeV

Fluctuations of thermodynamic quantities are fundamental for the study of the QGP phase transition. Among several observables calculated on an event–by–event basis, the different measures of the charge and mean transverse momentum fluctuations are of particular interest since they are considered to be indicators of the existence and of the order of this transition as well as of the thermalizati...
