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.
Heavy ions and hidden sectors
The meeting was inspired by several recent proposals to take advantage of the unique environment of heavy-ion collisions at the LHC to search for new phenomena.
Studying neutron stars in the laboratory
The ALICE collaboration is now using the scattering between particles produced in collisions at the LHC to constrain interaction potentials in a new way.

As two white dwarfs orbited one another they slowly lost momentum through the emission of gravitational waves.
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.
