Read article 'Results from SPIN@COSY may bode well for RHIC'
These results may help to increase the polarization in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven when it is used as a 250 GeV/c polarized proton collider
Read article 'ALICE unveils mysteries of the J/ψ'
Analysis of early results from both nucleus–nucleus and proton–proton collisions at the LHC indicate that a final answer on the fate of the J/ψ inside a hot QGP seems to be within reach.

A unique tool for exploring low-energy hadron interactions.
Read article 'Hadron spectra probe nature of matter in Pb–Pb collisions'
In current understanding, the matter created in heavy-ion collisions – the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) – behaves as a nearly perfect liquid.

Michael Thoennessen did not realize where documenting the discovery of isotopes would lead.
Read article 'Kaonic hydrogen casts new light on strong dynamics'
Hadronic bound systems with strange quarks, such as kaonic hydrogen, are well suited for testing chiral dynamics, especially in view of the interplay between spontaneous and explicit symmetry breaking...
