We discuss the physics of large impact parameter interactions at the LHC: ultraperipheral
collisions (UPCs). The dominant processes in UPCs are photon–nucleon (nucleus) …

The study of the structure of strongly interacting dense matter via hard jets is reviewed. High
momentum partons produced in hard collisions produce a shower of gluons prior to …

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the
Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and …

Abstract The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at
the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and …

In this review, we present an up-to-date phenomenological summary of research
developments in the physics of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP). A short historical …

Elastic light-by-light scattering (γ γ→ γ γ) is open to study at the Large Hadron Collider
thanks to the large quasireal photon fluxes available in electromagnetic interactions of …

A bstract Yields of prompt and non-prompt J/ψ, as well as\(\Upsilon\)(1S) mesons, are
measured by the CMS experiment via their μ+ μ− decays in PbPb and pp collisions at\(\sqrt …

The suppression of the individual Υ (n S) states in PbPb collisions with respect to their yields
in pp data has been measured. The PbPb and pp data sets used in the analysis correspond …

Abstract Proton–nucleus (p+ A) collisions have long been recognized as a crucial
component of the physics program with nuclear beams at high energies, in particular for …

First measurements of dihadron correlationsfor charged particles are presented for central
PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV over a broad range …
