A light on partons at the nuclear edge
ATLAS has observed that nucleons near the edge of a nucleus have different parton distribution functions from those near its centre.

Two channels for the top–antitop excess
The CMS collaboration reported an excess of top-antitop pairs in a new decay channel, consistent with the formation of a fleeting quasi-bound state.
