Particle identification was performed using the energy loss signal in the Inner Tracking System (ITS) and the Time Projection Chamber (TPC), while information from the Time-of-Flight (TOF) detector was used to identify particles at higher transverse momentum. From the spectra at $\\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV the mean transverse momentum ($$) and particle ratios were extracted and compared to results obtained for collisions at $\\sqrt{s} = 0.9$ TeV and lower energies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-09-30T08:22:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "transverse momentum spectra", "proton-proton collisions", "measurement", "mean transverse momentum", "energy loss signal" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/0954-3899/38/12/124074", "journal": "Journal of Physics G Nuclear Physics", "year": 2011, "month": "Dec", "volume": 38, "number": 12, "pages": 124074 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 930208, "adsabs": "2011JPhG...38l4074C" } } }
