Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomena
Experimental
Physics studies of p+Pb and Pb+Pb collisions in the ATLAS experiment at the LHC
at low transverse momenta include the charged particle multiplicities, their scaling
with the number of participating nucleons as well as pT-spectra and their modification
with respect to the spectra of proton-proton collisions. Recent ATLAS results on the total
charged particle multiplicities and spectra in...

Correlations and fluctuations
Experimental
Transverse momentum distributions of identified particles have been measured in several multiplicity classes in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV. This can improve the understanding of possible collective effects in high multiplicity events. Furthermore the production mechanism of deuterons can be studied, since p-Pb collisions bridge the charged multiplicity gap between...

Experimental
Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions produce strongly interacting matter at high temperature and energy density. Under these extreme conditions a deconfined partonic state, called Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), is formed. The measurement of quarkonia (charmonia and bottomonia) in AA collisions is expected to provide essential information about the QGP properties. In pp collisions high precision...

Correlations and fluctuations
Theory
From the most recent experimental data collected at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, it was realized that the outcome of high-energy proton-nucleus collisions is very sensitive to the fact that the nucleon positions in the nucleus fluctuate event by event. In order to be able to precisely extract from future measurements interesting properties of quantum chromodynamics in the strong field regime,...

Initial state effects and Color Glass Condensate
Experimental
In hadronic collisions, W bosons are produced in initial hard scattering processes and they are not affected by the strong interaction. They have been suggested as standard candles for luminosity measurements and their measurement can improve the evaluation of detector performances. In nucleus-nucleus and proton-nucleus collisions, W bosons allow one to check the validity of binary collision...
