Due to the effects of quantum statistics (QS) and final state interaction (FSI), the momentumcorrelations of two or more particles at small relative momenta in their center-of-mass system are sensitive to the space-time characteristics of the production
process so serving as a correlation femtoscopy tool.

CERN-INTAS grant
• INTAS Ref. No : 05-103-7484
• Project Title : Preparation for data taking and distributed analysis for the ALICE experiment at LHC.
• Proposal Coordinator:
Yves Schutz (CERN)
Participation of young physicists & students in ALICE JINR team
• Belorussia 1 person• Slovakia 2 persons;• Russia 3 persons;
Physicists from a number of JINR member-states take part in ALICE physics via JINR:
Azerbaijan; Bulgaria; Mongolia;
Joint research with JINR member-states physicists within ALICE groups:
Armenia; Poland; Romania; Russia; Ukraine
CONCLUSION• Participation of JINR team in ALICE physics is based on:
1. Contribution to design and construction of particular ALICE sub-detectors;
2. Long term participation in the physics and detector simulation;
3. Practical knowledge and experience in using of distributed computing (GRIID) for data analysis.
• JINR team has leading positions in some physics tasks. A few physics groups were organized in ALICE . Convener of one of these groups is JINR physicist Y. Belikov.
• JINR has responsibility for the ALICE Computing in Russia.• JINR team presents scientific results on workshops &
conferences.• Adequate funding for exploitation costs (setup and sub-
detectors PHOS and TRD) and travel have to be provided. • It is planned that the most of the data analysis carried by
JINR, will be done at Dubna. Computing power has to be increased by about 10 times.
Future plans in 2007-2008 years
Simulation of pp and Pb-Pb collision from 0.9 TeV till nominal LHC energies: 1.1. Vector mesons and quarkonia production decaying to m+m- and e-e+ pairs with adequate understanding of background conditions; 1.2. Study of direct photon and pi0 production with suitable background environment 1.3. Momentum correlations (femtoscopy): - Study of influence of particle identification and resonance decays using the UHKM code .
Participation in the data taking.
Start the data analysis.
