Read article 'ALICE tracks charm energy loss in the QGP'
The first direct observation of the suppression of charmed mesons at high transverse-momentum in head-on nucleus–nucleus collisions indicates that charm quarks suffer a strong loss of energy in hot...

Fragmentation of heavy nuclei provides beams of light ions at CERN.
Read article 'J/Ψ production in high-multiplicity pp collisions'
The J/Ψ meson, a bound state of a charm and an anticharm quark, has always been an important testing ground for quantum chromodynamics (QCD).

This book is based on the lectures delivered at the XCIII Session of the École de Physique des Houches, held in August 2009.
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.

On the trail from the SPS to RHIC to the LHC – and back to the SPS.
Read article 'ALICE measures multi-strange baryons'
The ALICE collaboration has measured the production of baryons containing two or three strange quarks in lead–lead collisions at the LHC, at an energy of 2.76 TeV per nucleon pair, nearly 14 times...
