ALICE takes a first look at diffraction
Diffractive processes represent more than 25% of the cross-section for inelastic proton–proton collisions at the LHC. So, it is only natural that the ALICE collaboration is interested in a field...

The atomic nucleus is generally described as a drop of quantum liquid. In particular, such liquid-like behaviour explains nuclear fission and applies especially to heavy nuclei such as uranium.
Techniques to shrink the beams of the heaviest ions ever used in a collider.
Harald Fritzsch, one of the pioneers of quantum chromodynamics, recalls some of the background to the development of the theory 40 years ago.
The studies of central heavy-ion collisions at the LHC by the ALICE, ATLAS and CMS experiments show that partons traversing the produced hot and dense medium lose a significant fraction of their energ...
