ALICE bags about twelve billion heavy-ion collisions
The whopping number of collisions recorded by ALICE during the recent five-week heavy-ion run of the LHC is 40 times greater than the total recorded by the experiment in its previous periods of heavy-ion data taking, from 2010 to 2018

Bikash Sinha (1945 – 2023)
Bikash Sinha(1945 – 2023) — Bikash Sinha, influential Indian scientist and pioneer in quark–gluon plasma and the early Universe, passed away on 11 August at the age of 78. As one of the ALICE experiment’s early visionaries and architects, his impact on heavy-ion physics is unmistakable. Bikash Sinha was born on 16 June 1945 in
