abstract

The performance of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the ALICE experiment during operation in 2010-2018 at the Large Hadron Collider is presented. After a short introduction into the design, readout, and trigger capabilities of the detector, the procedures for data taking, reconstruction, and validation are explained. The methods used for the calibration and various derived corrections are presented in detail. Subsequently, the capabilities of the calorimeter to reconstruct and measure photons, light mesons, electrons and jets are discussed. The performance of the calorimeter is illustrated mainly with data obtained with test beams at the Proton Synchrotron and Super Proton Synchrotron or in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV, and compared to simulations.

  1. Medium-induced modification of azimuthal correlations of electrons from heavy-flavor hadron decays with charged particles in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}} = 5.02}$ TeV

    nucl-ex 2025-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    First Pb-Pb measurement of heavy-flavor electron-charged particle azimuthal correlations shows a near-side low-pT enhancement hint (1.27 sigma) and an away-side high-pT suppression (2.5 sigma) in central collisions.

  2. Machine Learning Power Week 2023: Clustering in Hadronic Calorimeters

    nucl-ex 2025-08 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    Seven student teams applied K-means, anti-kt, and graph-based methods to ePIC calorimeter clustering; all beat the benchmark, with K-means variants on spherical coordinates performing best.
