High-density gas target at the LHCb experiment
read the original abstract
The recently installed internal gas target at LHCb presents exceptional opportunities for an extensive physics program for heavy-ion, hadron, spin, and astroparticle physics. A storage cell placed in the LHC primary vacuum, an advanced Gas Feed System, the availability of multi-TeV proton and ion beams and the recent upgrade of the LHCb detector make this project unique worldwide. In this paper, we outline the main components of the system, the physics prospects it offers and the hardware challenges encountered during its implementation. The commissioning phase has yielded promising results, demonstrating that fixed-target collisions can occur concurrently with the collider mode without compromising efficient data acquisition and high-quality reconstruction of beam-gas and beam-beam interactions.

Double quarkonium production in hadronic collisions at fixed-target experiments
Analytical cross sections and Sivers asymmetry predictions are presented for double quarkonium production via quark-antiquark annihilation at fixed-target experiments, showing a 10-15% asymmetry at COMPASS and small n...

Proton-Proton to Antinucleon Cross Sections for Cosmic Ray Applications
NLO perturbative QCD calculations predict only a mild few-percent excess of antineutrons over antiprotons in pp collisions, not supporting the ~30% excess reported by NA49.
