Sumario:Selected experimental results related to heavy-ion physics, obtained using the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), are presented. Measurements have been performed for lead-lead (PbPb), proton-lead (pPb) and proton-proton (pp) data samples collected in years 2010-2012. The jet-quenching phenomenon has been studied by looking at the production of so-called hard probes, such as high transverse momentum charged particles, isolated photons, Z and W bosons, and jets. In addition, the suppression of quarkonium states and long-range two-particle correlations have been investigated.
