A study of Double Pomeron Exchange in ALICE
The non-Abelian nature of QCD suggests that particles that have a gluon constituent, such as glueballs or hybrids, should exist.

A Topological Criterion for Alice Strings
Symmetry breaking can produce ``Alice'' strings, which alter scattered charges and carry monopole number and charge when twisted into loops.

Beauty production with the ALICE detector
Heavy flavour pairs produced in hadronic reactions provide a valuable laboratory for the study of strong interactions. Due to their

Correlations in proton-proton collisions with ALICE
Particle correlations and particle multiplicity distributions cannot be approached independently: a unified description of correlations and multiplicity distributions is always

Formation of Centauro and Strangelets in Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions at the LHC and their Identification by the ALICE Experiment
We present a phenomenological model which describes the formation of a Centauro fireball in nucleus-nucleus interactions in the upper atmosphere

Front-end electronics for ALICE dimuon trigger RPCs
A dedicated front-end electronics has been developed for the trigger chambers of the ALICE muon spectrometer which will work at

Global event properties in proton-proton physics with ALICE
ALICE is a unique opportunity for studying low Pt physics and minimum bias events, and consequently for hunting substructures in

The Physics of ALICE HLT Trigger Modes
We discuss different physics cases, mainly of the ALICE TPC, such as pile-up, jets in pp and PbPb, Bottonium and

Emission From Rotation-Powered Pulsars: Is It All Relative?
Thirty-five years after the discovery of rotation-powered pulsars, we still do not understand the fundamentals of their pulsed emission at

Gamma Rays From Rotation-Powered Pulsars
The seven known gamma-ray pulsars represent a very small fraction of the more than 1000 presently known radio pulsars, yet

High Energy Emission from the Polar Cap: The Slot Gap Revisited
The characteristics of the high-energy emission from polar cap accelerators will be discussed. Particles accelerated in the "slot gap" near

Highly-Magnetized Pulsars and Integral
The complete absence of radio pulsars with periods exceeding a few seconds has lead to the popular notion of the

Photon Attenuation and Pair Creation in Highly-Magnetized Pulsars
Developments over the last couple of years have supported the interpretation that anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma repeaters
