Abstract

Detection feasibility of the charmonium states χcJ at the ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider are studied. It is demonstrated that the current resolutions of the tracking system and the electromagnetic calorimeter is sufficient for signal discrimination of χc1 and χc2. Kinematic selection cuts are optimized for selection of these charmonia states.
