The ALICE collaboration has measured an interference pattern at the femtometre scale using ultra-peripheral collisions between lead nuclei at the LHC.
Read article 'ALICE gets with the flow'
With data from the first heavy-ion run at the LHC, the ALICE collaboration has made the first observation of elliptic flow of charged particles in lead-lead collisions at 2.76 TeV...

The LHC is back in business.
Read article 'ALICE studies beauty in the quark–gluon plasma'
In high-energy nucleus–nucleus collisions, heavy-flavour quarks (charm and beauty) are produced on a very short time scale in initial hard-scattering processes and thus they expe...
Read article 'ALICE investigates charm-quark hadronisation'
These two results suggest that charmed baryon formation might not be universal, and that the baryon/meson ratio depends on the collision system.
Read article 'ALICE closes in on parton energy loss'
In Pb-Pb collisions, the spectra are modified by the energy loss that the partons suffer when propagating in the quark-gluon plasma.
Read article 'ALICE probes partons inside lead nuclei'
The large centre-of-mass energy and luminosity of the LHC have made possible the first measurements of electroweak-boson production in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions.
