Abstract and subjects
The LHCb experiment has a complete heavy ion physics program, including studies of pp, pA, AA, and UPC events delivered by the Large Hadron Collider, along with a rapidly expanding fixed-target capability. With unique acceptance and detector capabilities, LHCb reaches across the widest range of Bjorken x that is available in the laboratory, accesses an incomparably broad array of light and heavy quark states, and provides measurements of forward bulk phenomena, all down to very low pT. These proceedings discuss results from LHCb as presented at the Quark Matter 2023 conference in Houston, TX.
