Strangeness production in heavy-ion collisions, when compared to proton proton collisions, is potentially a sensitive probe for collective energy deposition and therefore for reaction mechanisms in general. It may therefore provide insight…
Recent inclusive and differential cross section measurements of the associated production of top quark pairs with gauge bosons or heavy-flavor jets are reported. A search for physics beyond the standard model in the top quark sector is also…
The recent observation of two PeV events at IceCube, followed by an additional 26 events between 30 - 300 TeV, has generated considerable speculations on its origin, and many exotic New Physics explanations have been invoked. For a reliable…
