ALICE Forward Calorimeter (FoCal) upgrade: physics program and expected performance
/ Jia, Shihai (Bohr Inst. ; Beijing, Inst. Atomic Energy)
/ALICE Collaboration
FoCal is a high-granularity forward calorimeter to be installed as an ALICE upgrade during the LHC Long Shutdown 3 for data taking in Run 4.Covering $3.4 < \eta < 5.5$ with full azimuthal acceptance, it will probe QCD at Bjorken-$x$ values down to $\sim 10^{-6}$, where non-linear dynamics are expected to become significant.The detector features a compact silicon–tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter with pad and pixel readout for precise photon measurements, complemented by a hadronic section based on copper capillaries instrumented with scintillating fibers.This design enables measurements of key observables such as isolated photons, jets, ultra-peripheral photo-production of vector mesons, and angular correlations at forward rapidity.Following the completion of its Technical Design Report, the FoCal project is moving into the production phase for installation in 2028.We present an overview of the FoCal physics programme, the detector design, and the expected performance based on recent test-beam results from small-scale prototypes..

The new truly cylindrical tracker for the ALICE ITS3
/ Perciballi, Stefania (Colombia, U. Natl. ; Turin U.)
/ALICE Collaboration
The ALICE collaboration is preparing an upgrade of the three innermost layers of the current Inner Tracking System (ITS) during the next LHC long shutdown (LS3). The new ITS detector will use wafer-scale (up to \SI{27}{cm} in length) Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors with a \SI{65}{nm} CMOS Image Sensor process, thinned to \SI{50}{\micro m} and bent around the beam pipe.

Investigating charm-quark dynamics in the QGP via the charm-hadron elliptic flow in Pb–Pb collisions with ALICE
/ Di Costanzo, Marcello (Polytech. Turin ; INFN, Turin)
/ALICE Collaboration
In these proceedings, the elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) measurement of prompt and non-prompt charm hadrons - originating respectively from the fragmentation of a charm quark and from the decay of hadrons with beauty-quark content - in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.36~\text{TeV}$, using the latest data collected during LHC Run 3 by the ALICE detector, is presented. The analysis is performed at midrapidity ($|y| < 0.8$), and hadronic decay channels are used to reconstruct the signal candidates. [...]

Light-flavour Hadron Production Investigated in Xe–Xe Collisions with ALICE Experiment at the LHC$^\ast$
/ Džalaiová, Natália (Comenius U.)
/ALICE Collaboration
Light-flavour hadron production has been studied in \(pp\), \(p\)–Pb, Pb–Pb, and, most recently, in Xe–Xe collisions. In this work, the production of pions, kaons, (anti-)protons, \(\phi \) mesons, \(K^{0}_{\mathrm {S}}\), $\Xi$, and $\Omega$ at midrapidity in Xe–Xe collisions at \(\sqrt {s_{NN}} = 5.44\) TeV is presented.

ALICE ITS2: Performance and Operational Experience
/ Kim, Jiyoung (CERN ; Inha U.)
/ALICE Collaboration
The ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS2) is the innermost tracking detector of the ALICE experiment, providing vertex reconstruction and tracking of charged particles. The upgraded detector consists of seven cylindrical layers of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors covering 10 $m^2$ of active area and has been successfully operating since 2021.The ALPIDE sensors, manufactured using a 180 nm CMOS technology, feature $29\,\times\,27$ $\mu$m pixels with a spatial resolution of 5 $\mu$m.
