ALICE revolutionizes TOF systems

The ALICE TOF is made of 1593 MRPCs, each of which is 120 cm long and consists of a double-stack MRPC, with a total of 10 gaps 250 μm wide

…and measures suppression of single jets in heavy-ion collisions

While primarily designed for proton–proton collisions, the ATLAS detector is also an excellent tool to perform measurements in the hot, dense environment of heavy-ion collisions, where temperatures ...

ALICE measures the shape of  head-on lead–lead collisions

One the many surprises to have emerged from studies of heavy-ion collisions at Brookhaven's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and now at CERN's LHC concerns the extreme fluidity of the dense matt...

TOTEM probes new depths in pp elastic scattering

Finding out more about the proton at LHC energies.

ALICE goes in search of charmonium in the quark–gluon plasma

The results, presented at the Quark Matter 2011 conference (Heavy ions in Annecy), hint at the recombination of charm and anticharm quarks in the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) formed in heavy-ion collisi...

COSY finds evidence for an exotic particle…

Experiments at the Jülich Cooler Synchrotron, COSY, have found evidence for a new complex state in the two-baryon system, with mass 2.37 GeV and width 70 MeV.
