Abstract

Heavy flavour and quarkonia are important probes of the hot and dense QCD medium formed in high energy heavy-ion collisions, through the modification of their yields and kinematical distributions. Moreover, quarkonium production in ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions is a powerful tool to study the gluon distribution in the nuclei at low Bjorken-x. Quarkonia and heavy flavour production is measured in ALICE at both forward and mid-rapidity, by exploiting several experimental techniques. The main results obtained in Pb-Pb and pp collisions are presented.
