New results from CERN’s ALICE experiment are revealing how gluons behave inside atomic nuclei at extremely small scales. By studying J/ψ particles produced at high energies, researchers found evidence that challenges traditional models and points toward gluon saturation—a state where these particles become extraordinarily dense and interact collectively. The findings offer a new glimpse into the strong force and the hidden structure of visible matter. This episode includes AI-generated content.
