First measurement of D$^{*+}$ vector spin alignment in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV
/ ALICE Collaboration, CERN
The first measurement of prompt D$^{*+}$ meson spin alignment in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions with respect to the direction orthogonal to the reaction plane is presented. The spin alignment is quantified by measuring the element $\rho_{00}$ of the diagonal spin-density matrix for prompt D$^{*+}$ mesons with $4 < p_{\rm T} < 30$ GeV/$c$ in two rapidity intervals, $|y| < 0.3$ and $0.3 < |y| < 0.8$, in central (0– 10%) and midcentral (30–50%) Pb–Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV.

Correlations among conserved quantum numbers, such as the net-electric charge, the net-baryon, and the net-strangeness in heavy-ion collisions, are crucial for exploring the QCD phase diagram. In this letter, these correlations are investigated using net-proton number (as a proxy for the net-baryon), net-kaon number (for the net-strangeness), and net-charged particle number in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector.

According to quantum chromodynamics, at sufficiently high energy, the structure of hadrons reveals a dynamic equilibrium between gluon splitting and gluon recombination—a phenomenon known as saturation. The process of diffractive photonuclear production of a J/$\psi$ vector meson provides a direct insight into the gluon composition of hadrons. [...]

We present the measurement of the $p_{\rm T}$-differential production cross section of $\omega$ mesons in pp and p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV at midrapidity by ALICE.

A signal consistent with the $\Omega$(2012) baryon has been observed with a significance of $15\sigma$ in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV at the LHC. In this paper, the analysis technique is described and measurements of the mass and width of the $\Omega$(2012) are reported, along with the first measurement of its transverse-momentum spectrum and yield.
