Summary:
Physicists at CERN have found a new way to peer deep inside atomic nuclei and
distinguish between two competing explanations for how gluons behave.
Using the ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, researchers measured
particle production at unprecedented spatial resolution, revealing structures
as small as about one-quarter the size of a proton.
At the smallest scales, they saw a surprising drop in J/-e production that
conventional rCLnuclear shadowingrCY struggles to explain.
