The measurement of the production of deuterons, tritons and 3He and their antiparticles in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV is presented in this article. The measurements are carried out at midrapidity (y|< 0.5) as a function of collision centrality using the ALICE detector. The pT-integrated yields, the coalescence parameters and the ratios to protons and antiprotons are reported and compared with nucleosynthesis models. The comparison of these results in different collision systems at different center-of-mass collision energies reveals a suppression of nucleus production in small systems. In the Statistical Hadronisation Model framework, this can be explained by a small correlation volume where the baryon number is conserved, as already shown in previous fluctuation analyses. However, a different size of the correlation volume is required to describe the proton yields in the same data sets. The coalescence model can describe this suppression by the fact that the wave functions of the nuclei are large and the fireball size starts to become comparable and even much smaller than the actual nucleus at low multiplicities.
The knowledge of the material budget with a high precision is fundamental for measurements of direct photon production using the photon conversion method due to its direct impact on the total systematic uncertainty. Moreover, it influences many aspects of the charged-particle reconstruction performance. In this article, two procedures to determine data-driven corrections to the material-budget description in ALICE simulation software are developed. One is based on the precise knowledge of the gas composition in the Time Projection Chamber. The other is based on the robustness of the ratio between the produced number of photons and charged particles, to a large extent due to the approximate isospin symmetry in the number of produced neutral and charged pions. Both methods are applied to ALICE data allowing for a reduction of the overall material budget systematic uncertainty from 4.5% down to 2.5%. Using these methods, a locally correct material budget is also achieved. The two proposed methods are generic and can be applied to any experiment in a similar fashion.

Dielectrons are unique observables in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Thanks to their penetrating nature, they carry information from all stages of the collision and can provide knowledge about pre-equilibirium dynamics, QGP temperature and transport coefficients, and chiral symmetry restoration. On the other hand, experimental challenges are enormous because production cross sections are small and the signal of interest is eclipsed by a huge combinatorial and physics background from light- and heavy-flavour hadron decays. In this talk the status of dielectron measurements with ALICE is shown and the perspectives with the recently installed and planned ALICE detector upgrades are discussed.
The inclusive production of the charm-strange baryon Ω0c is measured for the first time via its semileptonic decay into Ω−e+νe at midrapidity (|y| < 0.8) in proton–proton (pp) collisions at the centre-of-mass energy √s = 13 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The transverse momentum (pT) differential cross section multiplied by the branching ratio is presented in the interval 2 < pT < 12 GeV/c. The branching-fraction ratio BR(Ω0c → Ω−e+νe)/BR(Ω0c → Ω−π+) is measured to be 1.12 ± 0.22 (stat.) ± 0.27 (syst.). Comparisons with other experimental measurements, as well as with theoretical calculations, are presented.

We introduce a novel technique that utilizes a physics-driven deep learning method to reconstruct the dense matter equation of state from neutron star observables, particularly the masses and radii. The proposed framework involves two neural networks: one to optimize the EoS using Automatic Differentiation in the unsupervised learning scheme; and a pre-trained network to solve the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff (TOV) equations. The gradient-based optimization process incorporates a Bayesian picture into the proposed framework. The reconstructed EoS is proven to be consistent with the results from conventional methods. Furthermore, the resulting tidal deformation is in agreement with the limits obtained from the gravitational wave event, GW170817.
We investigate the role of the Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) for light nuclei, at the examples of 12C and 16O. We show that ignoring the PEP does lead not only to a too dense spectrum at low energy but also to a wrong grouping into bands. Using a geometrical mapping, a triangular structure for 12C and a tetrahedral structure in 16O in the ground state is obtained by using the indistinguishably of the α-particles.
Determination of the structure of complex I of Yarrowia lipolytica by single particle analysis
(2004)
Komplex I enthält ein Flavinmononukleotid sowie mindestens acht Eisen- Schwefel Zentren als redoxaktive Cofaktoren. Da ein wesentlicher Teil des mitochondrialen Genoms für Untereinheiten von Komplex I codiert, betrifft eine Vielzahl von mitochondrialen Erkrankungen diesen Enzymkomplex.
Komplex I wurde bisher aus Mitochondrien, Chloroplasten und Bakterien isoliert. Die Minimalform von Komplex I wird in Bakterien gefunden, wo er aus 14 (bzw 13 im Falle einer Genfusion) Untereinheiten besteht und eine Masse von etwa 550 kDa aufweist. Generell werden sieben hydrophile und sieben hydrophobe Untereinheiten mit über 50 vorhergesagten Transmembranhelices gefunden. Im Komplex I aus Eukaryoten wurde eine grössere Anzahl zusätzlicher, akzessorischer Untereinheiten nachgewiesen. Hier werden die sieben hydrophoben Untereinheiten vom mitochondrialen Genom codiert, während alle anderen Untereinheiten kerncodiert sind und in das Mitochondrium importiert werden müssen.
Die obligat aerobe Hefe Yarrowia lipolytica wurde als Modellsystem zur Untersuchung von eukaryotischem Komplex I etabliert. Die bisher am besten untersuchte Hefe Saccharomyces cerevisiae enthält keinen Komplex I. Hier wird die Oxidation von NADH durch eine andere Klasse von sogenannten alternativen NADH Dehydrogenasen durchgeführt. Auch Y. lipolytica enthält ein solches alternatives Enzym, das allerdings mit seiner Substratbindungsstelle zur Aussenseite der inneren Mitochondrienmembran orientiert ist. Durch molekularbiologische Manipulation konnte eine interne Version dieses Enzymes exprimiert werden, wodurch es möglich ist, letale Defekte in Komplex I Deletionsmutanten zu kompensieren. Mittlerweile wurden alle Voraussetzungen geschaffen, um kerncodierte Untereinheiten von Komplex I aus Y. lipolytica gezielt genetisch zu verändern. Die Proteinreinigung wird durch die Verwendung einer auf einem His-tag basierenden Affinitätsreinigung erheblich erleichtert...
We carry out an in-depth analysis of the prompt-collapse behaviour of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. To this end, we perform more than 80 general relativistic BNS merger simulations using a family of realistic Equations of State (EOS) with different stiffness, which feature a first order deconfinement phase transition between hadronic and quark matter. From these simulations we infer the critical binary mass Mcrit that separates the prompt from the non-prompt collapse regime. We show that the critical mass increases with the stiffness of the EOS and obeys a tight quasi-universal relation, Mcrit/MTOV ≈ 1.41 ± 0.06, which links it to the maximum mass MTOV of static neutron stars, and therefore provides a straightforward estimate for the total binary mass beyond which prompt collapse becomes inevitable. In addition, we introduce a novel gauge independent definition for a one-parameter family of threshold masses in terms of curvature invariants of the Riemann tensor which characterizes the development toward a more rapid collapse with increasing binary mass. Using these diagnostics, we find that the amount of matter remaining outside the black hole sharply drops in supercritical mass mergers compared to subcritical ones and is further reduced in mergers where the black hole collapse is induced by the formation of a quark matter core. This implies that Mcrit, particularly for merger remnants featuring quark matter cores, imposes a strict upper limit on the emission of any detectable electromagnetic counterpart in BNS mergers.
