- Angular correlations between charged trigger and associated particles are measured by the ALICE detector in p-Pb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV for transverse momentum ranges within 0.5 < P-T,P-assoc < P-T,P-trig < 4 GeV/c. The correlations are measured over two units of pseudorapidity and full azimuthal angle in different intervals of event multiplicity, and expressed as associated yield per trigger particle. Two long-range ridge-like structures, one on the near side and one on the away side, are observed when the per-trigger yield obtained in low-multiplicity events is subtracted from the one in high-multiplicity events. The excess on the near-side is qualitatively similar to that recently reported by the CMS Collaboration, while the excess on the away-side is reported for the first time. The two-ridge structure projected onto azimuthal angle is quantified with the second and third Fourier coefficients as well as by near-side and away-side yields and widths. The yields on the near side and on the away side are equal within the uncertainties for all studied event multiplicity and p(T) bins, and the widths show no significant evolution with event multiplicity or p(T). These findings suggest that the near-side ridge is accompanied by an essentially identical away-side ridge. (c) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

- The ALICE experiment at the LHC has studied J/psi production at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV through its electron pair decay on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity L-int = 5.6 nb(-1). The fraction of J/psi from the decay of long-lived beauty hadrons was determined for J/psi candidates with transverse momentum p(t) > 1,3 GeV/c and rapidity vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9. The cross section for prompt J/psi mesons, i.e. directly produced J/psi and prompt decays of heavier charmonium states such as the psi(2S) and chi(c) resonances, is sigma(prompt J/psi) (p(t) > 1.3 GeV/c, vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9) = 8.3 +/- 0.8(stat.) +/- 1.1 (syst.)(-1.4)(+1.5) (syst. pol.) mu b. The cross section for the production of b-hadrons decaying to J/psi with p(t) > 1.3 GeV/c and vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9 is a sigma(J/psi <- hB) (p(t) > 1.3 GeV/c, vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9) = 1.46 +/- 0.38 (stat.)(-0.32)(+0.26) (syst.) mu b. The results are compared to QCD model predictions. The shape of the p(t) and y distributions of b-quarks predicted by perturbative QCD model calculations are used to extrapolate the measured cross section to derive the b (b) over bar pair total cross section and d sigma/dy at mid-rapidity.

- We present measurements of Underlying Event observables in pp collisions at root s = 0 : 9 and 7 TeV. The analysis is performed as a function of the highest charged-particle transverse momentum p(T),L-T in the event. Different regions are defined with respect to the azimuthal direction of the leading (highest transverse momentum) track: Toward, Transverse and Away. The Toward and Away regions collect the fragmentation products of the hardest partonic interaction. The Transverse region is expected to be most sensitive to the Underlying Event activity. The study is performed with charged particles above three different p(T) thresholds: 0.15, 0.5 and 1.0 GeV/c. In the Transverse region we observe an increase in the multiplicity of a factor 2-3 between the lower and higher collision energies, depending on the track p(T) threshold considered. Data are compared to PYTHIA 6.4, PYTHIA 8.1 and PHOJET. On average, all models considered underestimate the multiplicity and summed p(T) in the Transverse region by about 10-30%.

- Se propone un nuevo método de predicción de vida útil remanente (RUL) inspirado en clasificadores de máquinas de soporte vectorial (SVM). Los datos históricos de condición de un sistema durante su tiempo de vida se utilizan para crear una clasificación mediante hiperplanos en SVM. Para estimar la RUL de un sistema, la velocidad de degradación se evalúa calculando la distancia mínima definida con base en las trayectorias de degradación; es decir, el acercamiento del sistema al hiperplano que segrega información de las condiciones buenas y malas en diferentes horizontes de tiempo. Se puede estimar la vida final de un componente específico, o la información de la RUL de una población ser calculada, mediante la agregación de múltiples estimaciones RUL usando un método de estimación de densidad. La degradación de un sistema se ve afectado por muchos factores desconocidos que, además de complicar los comportamientos de degradación, dificultan la recolección de datos con calidad. Debido a falta de conocimiento y medidas incompletas, normalmente se carece de información importante del contexto de los datos recogidos. Por ello se agrupan datos históricos del sistema con gran variedad de patrones de degradación, con los que la búsqueda de un modelo global depredicción RUL es extremadamente difícil. Esto lleva a buscar técnicas avanzadas de predicción más allá de los modelos tradicionales. El modelo propuesto desarrolla un método eficaz de predicción RUL que aborda múltiples retos en pronósticos de sistemas complejos. Las similitudes entre trayectorias de degradación pueden contrastarse para enriquecer las metodologías actuales de prognosis. Para verificar el modelo se emplean datos del monitorizado de condición en rodamientos.
