Sumario: | The LHCb spectrometer has the unique capability to function as a
fixed-target experiment by injecting gas into the LHC beampipe while proton
or ion beams are circulating. The resulting beam+gas collisions cover
an unexplored energy range that is above the previous fixed-target experiments,
but below the top RHIC energy for AA collisions. Here, we present
new results on antiproton and charm production from pHe, pNe, and PbNe
fixed-target collisions at the LHCb. Comparisons with existing measurements
and various theoretical models of particle production and transport
through the nucleus will be discussed. |
