This is the first time that D meson suppression has been measured directly in central nucleus–nucleus collisions.
Read article 'ALICE sheds light on particle production in heavy-ion collisions'
New results from the ALICE collaboration are providing additional data to test ideas about how particles are produced out of the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) created in heavy-ion...
