A brief introduction of the relationship of string percolation to the Quantum Chromo
Dynamics (QCD) phase diagram is presented. The behavior of the Polyakov loop close to …

ALICE is a general-purpose heavy-ion experiment designed to study the physics of strongly
interacting matter and the quark–gluon plasma in nucleus–nucleus collisions at the LHC. It …

A bstract The observation of heavy-ion-like behaviour in pp collisions at the LHC suggests
that more physics mechanisms are at play than traditionally assumed. The introduction eg of …

Predictions on central rapidity densities of charged particles at energies of the relativistic
heavy ion collider and the large hadron collider, for central collisions between the largest …

It is shown that the critical threshold for percolation of the overlap** strings exchanged in
heavy ion collisions can naturally explain the sharp strong suppression of J/ψ shown by the …

In the color-string model, the impact of string percolation on multiplicities, ⟨p_T^2⟩, and
their long-range (forward–backward) correlations is studied. It is assumed that different …

The influence of the string fusion on the basic features of relativistic heavy-ion collisions is
studied with the help of a Monte Carlo string fusion model. The model is based on the parton …

A bstract The strength of forward-backward (FB) multiplicity correlations is measured by the
ALICE detector in proton-proton (pp) collisions at\(\sqrt {s}\)= 0. 9, 2. 76 and 7 TeV. The …

The forward-backward correlations in the p T distributions at midrapidity, which present a
clear signature of nonlinear effects in particle production, are studied in the model of …

The theoretical basis to build a Monte-Carlo string model, which includes string fusion
phenomena, is presented. The model intends for simulations of multiple particle production …
