Hadronic resonance production with ALICE at the LHC

TL;DR

This paper reports on measurements of short-lived hadronic resonances in high-energy collisions at the LHC, analyzing their spectra, yields, and nuclear modification factors to understand particle production mechanisms.

Contribution

It provides new experimental data on resonance production at LHC energies, comparing results with models and lower-energy measurements to advance understanding of hadronic matter.

Findings

Resonance yields vary with system size and collision energy.

Resonance-to-long-lived particle ratios are characterized.

Nuclear modification factors indicate medium effects on resonance production.

Abstract

We present recent results on short-lived hadronic resonances obtained by the ALICE experiment at LHC energies. Results include system-size and collision-energy evolution of transverse momentum spectra, yields and ratios of resonance yields to those of longer lived particles, and nuclear modification factors. The results are compared with model predictions and measurements at lower energies.
