The mass of the nucleus reflects the total energy of this many-body system and thus is a key property for a variety of nuclear structure and fundamental investigations. Modern experimental techniques, like storage-ring or Penning-trap mass spectrometry, have pushed in recent years the limits of sensitivity, resolution and accuracy. This has allowed to access exotic species very far from the...

Hard scattering processes in high-energy nuclear collisions produce energetic quarks and gluons that probe the hot and dense matter that is created in the collisions as they escape the collision zone. I will review recent experimental results concerning the production of high-pt particles and jets in heavy ion collisions at LHC and what these results tell us about the the interactions between...
