Systematic studies of charge-dependent two-and three-particle correlations in Pb-Pb collisions at= 2.76 and 5.02 TeV used to probe the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) are presented. These measurements are performed for charged particles in the pseudorapidity (η) and transverse momentum (p T) ranges| η|< 0. 8 and 0. 2< p T< 5 GeV/c. A significant charge-dependent signal that becomes more pronounced for peripheral collisions is reported for the CME-sensitive correlators γ 1, 1=< cos (φ α+ φ β− 2Ψ 2)> and γ 1,− 3=< cos (φ α− 3φ β+ 2Ψ 2)>. The results are used to estimate the contribution of background effects, associated with local charge conservation coupled to anisotropic flow modulations, to measurements of the CME. A blast-wave parametrisation that incorporates local charge conservation tuned to reproduce the centrality dependent background effects is not able to fully describe the measured γ 1, 1. Finally, the charge and centrality dependence of mixed-harmonics three-particle correlations, of the form γ 1, 2=< cos (φ α+ 2φ β− 3Ψ 3)>, which are insensitive to the CME signal, verify again that background contributions dominate the measurement of γ 1, 1.
