AbstractAbstract
[en] Quarkonia serve as an important probe to study the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), a deconfined state of quarks and gluons created at extreme energy-densities, in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. ALICE records the snapshots of high-energy collisions of various colliding beams such as pp, p-Pb, Pb-Pb and Xe-Xe at LHC energies. This allows to explore different phase space domains of heavy-quark (c, b and their anti-quarks) production by hard-scattering processes describable using a perturbative QCD framework. At present, ALICE is going through an upgrade phase where the Muon Spectrometer readout upgrade is an important activity to record Pb-Pb collisions at the highest rate of 50 kHz. In addition, a five layer silicon pixel detector named Muon Forward Tracker is being installed. This will improve the vertex finding capability resulting in a better track resolution of muons and identification of prompt J/ψ at forward rapidities
