Heavy (beauty and charm) quarks are very valuable probes of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy ion collisions, because they experience the whole evolution of the medium. They can also help understanding the dynamics of hadronization, and how they are affected by the interaction with the medium. In this context, the B_c meson is an interesting and new probe, that could both give new...
ALICE experiment at LHC studies through ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions, a deconfined state of matter, the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). This state raises many questions about mechanisms of strong interaction and the cohesion of matter. Moreover, QGP is an extremely hot and dense state that behaves more like a nearly ideal, strongly interacting fluid and it can represents the universe at...
The measurement of the Z and W production cross sections in heavy-ion collisions allow to probe the internal structure of the nucleus and constrain the nuclear Partonic Distribution Functions. The work presented here is based on data from proton$-$lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\rm NN}}}$ = 8.16 TeV recorded with ALICE.
