Suppressions of light and heavy flavor observables are considered to be excellent probes of QCD matter created in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. Suppression predictions of quark and gluon jets appear to suggest a clear hierarchy…

The ATLAS detector at the LHC recorded 0.49nb$^{-1}$ of Pb+Pb collisions and 25pb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions, both at the center-of-mass energy 5.02TeV per nucleon pair. Recently, ATLAS also recorded 3$\mu$b$^{-1}$ of Xe+Xe collisions at the…

Small nuclear collisions are mainly sensitive to cold-nuclear-matter effects; however, the collective behavior observed in these collisions shows a hint of hot-nuclear-matter effects. The identified-particle spectra, especially the $\phi$…
We have analysed the NA50 data, on the centrality dependence of $p_T$ broadening of $J/\psi$'s, in Pb+Pb collisions, at the CERN-SPS. The data were analysed in a QCD based model, where $J/\psi$'s are suppressed in 'nuclear' medium. Without…
