Production of light (anti)nuclei in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}~=~5.02$ TeV
@inproceedings{Collaboration2021ProductionOL, title={Production of light (anti)nuclei in pp collisions at \$\sqrt\{s\}~=~5.02\$ TeV}, author={Alice Collaboration}, year={2021} }
The study of the production of nuclei and antinuclei in pp collisions has proven to be a powerful tool to investigate the formation mechanism of loosely bound states in high-energy hadronic collisions. In this paper, the production of protons, deuterons and 3 He and their charge conjugates at midrapidity is studied as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity in inelastic pp collisions at √ s = 5 . 02 TeV using the ALICE detector. Within the uncertainties, the yields of nuclei in pp…

Light antinucleus yields are calculated in a multiphase transport model (AMPT) coupled with a dynamical coalescence model. The model is tuned to reproduce the transverse momentum and rapidity…
