ATLAS releases first open data from heavy-ion collisions
The ATLAS Collaboration has released its first open data of heavy-ion collisions for research purposes. This dataset features lead-ion (Pb-Pb) collisions at an energy of 5 TeV per nucleon pair, recorded in 2015 as part of the Large Hadron Collider’s second operation period (LHC Run 2). Today’s release is the highest energy heavy-ion collision data ever made publicly available and the first LHC Run 2 heavy-ion open dataset.

The measurement of a lifetime
This week, the ATLAS Collaboration announced a new high-precision measurement of the lifetime of the B0 meson. The B0 meson is composed of a bottom quark and a down antiquark. Measurements of its lifetime – the average time it exists before decaying – provide an exceptional probe of physics processes beyond the Standard Model.

At the BOOST 2024 conference, the ATLAS Collaboration presented a new technique that employs artificial intelligence (AI) to refine jet calibration, specifically focusing on jets originating from bottom quarks (b-jets).
Breaking through (jet) barriers
As the most abundantly produced object in the ATLAS experiment, jets are critical to understanding a number of physics processes. In new results presented at the BOOST 24 conference in Genova (Italy), ATLAS scientists detailed two innovative approaches for more accurately quantifying jet properties.
Summary of new ATLAS results from BOOST 2024
The 16th International Workshop on Boosted Object Phenomenology, Reconstruction, Measurements, and Searches at Colliders (BOOST 2024) kicks off today in Genova (Italy). This year’s edition continues the tradition of bringing together leading experts from both theoretical and experimental backgrounds to discuss latest developments in the study of particle “jets”.

In a new result from the ATLAS Collaboration, physicists analysed the first Run-3 heavy-ion collision data collected in the autumn of 2023. Specifically researchers looked at “ultraperipheral” collisions, where ions pass at a distance precluding hadronic interactions yet close enough to interact through electromagnetic fields.
Summary of new ATLAS results from ICHEP 2024
The 2024 International Conference on High Energy Physics (ICHEP) kicks off this week in Prague, Czech Republic. For over 70 years, ICHEP has gathered physicists from around the world to share the latest advancements in particle physics, astrophysics, cosmology, and accelerator science, and to discuss plans for major future facilities.
