First measurement of coherent ρ0 photoproduction in ultra-peripheral Xe–Xe collisions at sNN=5.44 TeV

The Time-Of-Flight detector (TOF) of the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC is based on Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPCs). The TOF detector consists of 152928 readout channels covering a total area of 141 m2. In this paper the results of the calibration with cosmic-ray data collected during 2009 are presented.

Results of the ALICE time-of-flight detector from the 2009 cosmic-ray data taking

The ALICE Time-Of-Flight (TOF) detector is a cylindrical array with a total area of about 150 m 2 and more than 153,000 readout channels; it will allow charged hadron separation for momentum up to a few GeV/ c . The very good performance required for such a system has been achieved by means of the Multigap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC) whose time resolution is better than 50 ps with an overall efficiency close to 100%. The TOF detector is fully installed since April 2008; it has successfully been operated during cosmic ray data taking. The very good stability, noise level and time performance are reported here. The status of the calibration and the first physics results with the TOF detector are given.

Measurement of Λc Baryon production in the decay channel Λc → pK0 S in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions with ALICE detector at LHC

The goal of the ALICE Time-of-Flight detector, based on MRPC technology, is to perform the charged-particle identification at midrapidity, in the region |η|
