Charm Quarks Offer Clues to Confinement

Image - This image represents a collision of gold nuclei, recorded by STAR, the Solenoidal Tracker at Brookhaven Lab’s Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, with the Berkeley Lab-built Heavy Flavor Tracker detector. The white points show the measured hits that were used to reconstruct charged particle tracks (red and green lines). (Credit: Xin Dong, Berkeley Lab)
