Nuclear Structure and Astrophysics
Short Contribution
Antiprotons as probe for nuclear studies with short-lived isotopes remain unexploited despite past pioneer works at CERN/LEAR and Brookhaven. Antiprotons may represent a unique probe sensitive to the ratio of neutron and proton densities at annihilation site, i.e. in the tail of the nuclear density. Realising antiproton capture from short-lived nuclei is the objective of a new project named...

Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics
Short Contribution
The heavy-ion program in the ATLAS experiment at the LHC originated as
an extensive program to probe and characterize the hot, dense matter
created in relativistic lead-lead collisions. In recent years, the
program has also broadened to a detailed study of collective behavior
in smaller systems. In particular, the techniques used to study
larger systems are also applied to proton-proton...

Applications and Instrumentations
Short Contribution
The micro-Resistive-WELL (μ-RWELL) has been conceived as a compact, simple and robust Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD) for large area HEP applications requiring the operation in harsh environment.
The detector amplification stage is realized with a polyimide structure micro-patterned with a blind-hole matrix, embedded through a thin Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) resistive layer in the...

Hadron Physics
Short Contribution
In heavy-ion collisions at few GeV per nucleon, QCD matter with densities several times larger than the normal nuclear matter density and temperatures of about 80 MeV is created. At such extreme conditions the fundamental properties of the hadrons are expected to be modified. Properties of produced QCD matter can be extracted directly from its emissivity in the electromagnetic sector or from...

Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics
Short Contribution
The question behind our work is the origin of the observed large momentum anisotropies in high energy pA collisions. It has been shown that initial state momentum correlations are sizeable in such small systems, and evidently, final state interactions of some form are also present and important. Because of the large gradients present in the spatial gluon distribution and the small number of...

Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics
Short Contribution
Photons play an important role in the investigation and understanding of the QGP. Unlike hadrons, which are likely to interact with the medium before detection, photons only interact electromagnetically, their mean free path is much larger than the size of the system. They are direct probes of the observed medium and offer unique insights into the fireball and the hadronic phase. Additionally,...
