Measurement of electrons from heavy-flavour hadron decays in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} =$ 5.02 TeV

The production of electrons from heavy-flavour hadron decays was measured as a function of transverse momentum ( pT ) in minimum-bias p–Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV using the ALICE detector at the LHC. The measurement covers the pT interval 0.5
