We are working mainly on strange things, which sound maybe odd but it refers simply to particles containing a strange quark. Why is the study of mesons and baryons with a strange content relevant for the human kind? One of the pioneering idea behind this study was the hypothesis that neutron stars might have a condensate of strange particles in their core. Astronomers looks at neutron stars and determine their mass and radii, we collide nuclei in the laboratory and try to produce high density environments, to measure there strange particles and help theoreticians in constraining models for neutron stars... among other things.

Abstract: We correct a typographical error in Eq. (8) of Ref. [1], which defines the Cauchy source. The denominator in the original equation was missing a square. This correction does not affect any physics…

Abstract: This Letter presents measurements of long-range transverse-momentum correlations using a new observable, v0(pT), serving as a probe of event-by-event radial-flow fluctuations, the underlying radial…

Abstract: Meson-baryon systems with strangeness content provide a unique laboratory for investigating the strong interaction and testing theoretical models of hadron structure and dynamics. In this work, the…

Abstract: The dependence of f0(980) production on the final-state charged-particle multiplicity is reported for proton–proton (pp) collisions at the centre-of-mass energy, s= 13 TeV. The production of f0(980)…
Physics Letters B
Abstract: In this letter, the first measurement of the femtoscopic correlation of protons and Σ+ hyperons is presented and used to study the p–Σ+ interaction. The measurement is performed with the ALICE…
European Physical Journal C
Abstract: The measurement of Σ+ production in pp collisions at s=13 TeV is presented. The measurement is performed at midrapidity in both minimum-bias and high-multiplicity pp collisions at s=13 TeV. The Σ+ is…

Abstract: Quantum Chromodynamics predicts a phase transition from hadronic matter to quark–gluon plasma (QGP) at high temperatures and energy densities, where quarks and gluons (partons) are no longer confined…
