In the present paper, the current efforts in heavy-ion collisions toward high-density nuclear matter will be discussed. First, the essential points learned from RHIC and LHC will be reviewed. Then, the present data from the STAR Beam Energy Scan are discussed. Finally, the current efforts, NICA, FAIR, HIAF, and J-PARC-HI (heavy ion) are described. In particular, the efforts of the J-PARC-HI project are described in detail.

Compositional analysis of traditional liquid gold with separation of compounds containing heavy atoms in ion mobility-mass spectrometry.

"Liquid gold" has been traditionally used for over a century to decorate ceramicware, but its chemical composition has not been thoroughly investigated. One of the keys to successfully characterizing liquid gold, which is a complex mixture, is to distinguish Au-containing products from other chemicals. In this paper, we propose a separation based on the difference in collision cross section, of which chemicals with heavy atoms are relatively smaller than those without in ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS).

Λ = Λ(1405) plays an essential role in the formation of kaonic nuclear clusters (KNC). The simplest KNC, Kpp, has the structure Λp = (Kp)p, in which a real kaon migrates between two nucleons, mediating super-strong Λp attraction. Production data of Kpp have been accumulated by DISTO, J-PARC E27 and J-PARC E15 experiments.

Article Synopsis
- The shape phase transition in nuclear physics, particularly for isotopes like xenon (Xe), involves a change in structure from a γ-soft rotor to a spherical vibrator, especially around the isotopes ^{128-130}Xe.
- In this study, researchers explore the γ-soft deformation of the isotope ^{129}Xe during ultrarelativistic collisions, using a model called iEBE-VISHNU to analyze how elliptic flow and transverse momentum relate to this deformation.
- The authors introduce new correlators that can effectively differentiate between γ-soft and rigid triaxial deformations of ^{129}Xe during collisions, furthering the understanding of shape phase transitions in finite nuclei.
Hadron-ion collisions in Pythia and the vector-meson dominance model for photoproduction.

Department of Physics, University of Jyvaskyla, P.O. Box 35, Fl-40014 Jyvaskyla, Finland.
Article Synopsis
- The extension of the Pythia Monte Carlo event generator allows for detailed simulations of collisions between a hadron beam and nuclear targets, with energy variations for each event.
- The work builds on existing models like Angantyr for heavy ions and includes a vector-meson dominance (VMD) model for simulating real photon interactions in photo-nuclear collisions.
- Validation with HERA data shows the model's effectiveness, and the generated events for ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions at the LHC align with ATLAS measurements, demonstrating consistency in single-particle multiplicity and azimuthal anisotropy patterns.
Unveiling Baryon Charge Carriers through Charge Stopping in Isobar Collisions.

Utilizing a comprehensive (3+1)D relativistic hydrodynamic framework with multiple conserved charge currents and charge-dependent lattice-QCD-based equation of state, we study the baryon and electric charge number deposition at midrapidity in isobar Ru+Ru and Zr+Zr collisions at the center of mass energy sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. Comparing our predictions with upcoming experimental data from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider will shed light on the existence of baryon junctions.
