Implications of LHC heavy ion data for multi-strange baryon production
Prior to the start of LHC operations, the good agreement of measurements of particle production at RHIC and other accelerators with simple thermodynamic models allowed one to constrain severely any production of hypothetical strangelets in heavy ion collisions at the LHC. [...]

Study of the $B^0\to \Lambda_c^+ \bar\Lambda_c^- K^0_S$ decay
The decay $B^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{\Lambda}_c^- K_S^0$ is studied at LHCb for the first time using proton-proton collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb$^{-1}$. [...]

Charmonium radiative transitions to dileptons from lattice QCD: The case of $h_c \to \eta_c \ell^+\ell^-$ and $\chi_{c1} \to J/\psi\,\ell^+\ell^-$ / Bečirević, D. (IJCLab, Orsay ; CERN ; U. Paris-Saclay) ; Di Palma, R. (INFN, Rome ; Rome U.) ; Frezzotti, R. (Rome U., Tor Vergata) ; Gagliardi, G. (INFN, Rome3) ; Lubicz, V. (INFN, Rome) ; Sanfilippo, F. (INFN, Rome3) ; Tantalo, N. (Rome U., Tor Vergata)
We present a lattice QCD study of dilepton production in charmonium transitions, specifically focusing on the $1^{+-} \to 0^{-+}$ and $1^{++} \to 1^{--}$ processes: $h_c \to η_c \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $χ_{c1} \to J/ψ\ell^+ \ell^-$, where $\ell = e, μ$. [...]
