Probing the Quark-Gluon Plasma from bottomonium production at forward rapidity with ALICE at the LHC

The main goal of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is the study of the properties of the matter at very high temperatures and energy densities. Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) predicts in these conditions the existence of a new phase of the matter whose components are deconfined in a Quark-Gluon P...
