As two white dwarfs orbited one another they slowly lost momentum through the emission of gravitational waves.
Read article 'How many protons collided in ATLAS in Run 2?'
The uncertainty of several ATLAS Run-1 measurements was dominated by systematic uncertainty on the integrated luminosity.
Read article 'New constraints on charm–quark hadronisation'
Heavier quarks, such as charm, can provide unique insights as they are produced early in the collisions, and their interactions with the QGP differ from their lighter cousins.

The ALICE collaboration is now using the scattering between particles produced in collisions at the LHC to constrain interaction potentials in a new way.
Read article 'Three-body B+ decays violate CP'
LHCb’s amplitude analyses contain the largest CP asymmetry in a single component of an amplitude analysis, found in the ππ ↔ KK re-scattering amplitude.
