Accelerating Argon Ions at the SPS
Accelerating Argon Ions at the SPS This year, the SPS accelerated argon ions for the first time, delivering beam to the NA61/SHINE experiment in the North Area. NA61/SHINE explores the phenomenon of deconfinement by studying the collisions of ions of different masses, at different energies. As argon ions are much lighter than lead ions that
