abstract

We propose a new fixed-target experiment for the study of electromagnetic and hard probes of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in heavy-ion collisions at the CERN SPS. The experiment aims at performing measurements of the dimuon spectrum from threshold up to the charmonium region, and of hadronic decays of charm and strange hadrons. It is based on a muon spectrometer, which includes a toroidal magnet and six planes of tracking detectors, coupled to a vertex spectrometer, equipped with Si MAPS immersed in a dipole field. High luminosity is an essential requirement for the experiment, with the goal of taking data with 10$^6$ incident ions/s, at collision energies ranging from $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 6.3$ GeV ($E_{\rm lab}= 20$ A GeV) to top SPS energy ($\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 17.3$ GeV, $E_{\rm lab}= 158$ A GeV). This document presents the physics motivation, the foreseen experimental set-up including integration and radioprotection studies, the current detector choices together with the status of the corresponding R&D, and the outcome of physics performance studies. A preliminary cost evaluation is also carried out.

  1. Proposal of the KOTO II experiment

    hep-ex 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    KOTO II, a proposed next-generation J-PARC experiment, projects observing 35 Standard Model K_L to pi0 nu nu decays with 40 background events, a 5.6 sigma discovery potential.

  2. Towards compressed baryonic matter densities: D meson diffusion

    nucl-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using relaxation-time kinetic theory with a chiral hadronic model, the authors estimate that D meson spatial diffusion in dense nuclear matter decreases rapidly in a dilute-gas regime and mildly in a degenerate-gas regime.

  3. Electromagnetic Probes of the Quantum Chromodynamical Plasma

    nucl-th 2024-11 unverdicted

    A review of electromagnetic probes of quark-gluon plasma, summarizing recent NLO rate calculations, viscous corrections, and Bayesian outlook; no new results are presented.
