CERN Physicists Observe Top-Quark Pairs in Lead-Lead Collisions

CERN Physicists Observe Top-Quark Pairs in Lead-Lead Collisions
Display of a lead-lead collision at 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair that resulted in a candidate pair of top quarks that decay into other particles. The event contains four particle jets (yellow cones), one electron (green line) and one muon (red line). The inlay shows an axial view of the event. Image credit: ATLAS / CERN.

Top-quark pair production has been observed in lead-lead collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with the ATLAS detector, marking the first observation of this process in interactions between atomic nuclei.
