Measurement of the D0 Meson Production in Pb–Pb and p–Pb Collisions A Study Performed with the ALICE Experiment at the LHC /
This thesis presents the first measurement of charmed D0 meson production relative to the reaction plane in Pb–Pb collisions at the center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of √sNN = 2.76 TeV. It also showcases the measurement of the D0 production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV wit...
