Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions are used to create a deconfined state of quarks and gluons, the quark–gluon plasma (QGP), similar to the matter in the early Universe. Dileptons are a unique probe of the QGP. Being emitted during all stages of the collision without interacting strongly with the surrounding matter, they carry undistorted information about the medium evolution. The mass of the lepton–antilepton pair gives a unique means to separate partonic from hadronic radiation. Thus, dileptons can be used to study the QGP equilibration time, its average temperature, and effects related to the restoration of chiral symmetry in the hot medium via vector meson decays. This information is not accessible with hadrons. The price to pay is a large background from ordinary hadron decays. We summarize the potential of dilepton measurements, the results obtained so far at colliders, and the ongoing efforts regarding future experiments with further increased sensitivity.

Detectors for relativistic nuclear interactions have significantly increased in size and sophistication over the last few decades, primarily owing to rising collision energies and rates. Common across most particle physics experiments is the need to measure collision vertex, particle momentum, and particle energy. To accurately measure momenta at the very low level of 100 MeV/c, tracking detectors with a very low material budget are required. Additionally, particle identification requires detector systems that use time-of-flight, energy loss, and Cherenkov radiation measurements. Compared to high-luminosity proton–proton experiments, these detectors face considerably lower radiation levels, enabling the use of a wider range of sensor technologies and leading to innovative developments in this area. Technological advancements in data transport and processing over recent decades now enable continuous data readout and online processing, eliminating the need for selective triggering, which has significantly enhanced detector performance. This article provides an overview of current and future detectors for relativistic nuclear collisions along with a discussion of key technological advancements in this context. Given the similarity in detector requirements for future e+e− Higgs factories, the conclusions drawn here are also relevant to developments in that domain.

Self-consistent, multidimensional core-collapse (CC) supernova (SN) simulations, especially in three dimensions, have achieved tremendous progress over the past 10 years. They are now able to follow the entire evolution from CC through bounce, neutrino-triggered shock revival, and shock breakout at the stellar surface to the electromagnetic SN outburst and the subsequent SN remnant phase. Thus they provide general support for the neutrino-driven explosion mechanism by reproducing observed SN energies, neutron star (NS) kicks, and diagnostically relevant radioactive isotope yields. They also allow prediction of neutrino and gravitational wave signals for many seconds of proto-NS cooling, confirm correlations between explosion and progenitor or remnant properties already expected from previous spherically symmetric (one-dimensional) and two-dimensional models, and carve out various scenarios for stellar-mass black hole (BH) formation. Despite these successes, it is currently unclear which stars explode or form BHs because different modeling approaches disagree and suggest the possible importance of the three-dimensional nature of the progenitors and of magnetic fields. The role of neutrino flavor conversion in SN cores needs to be better understood, the nuclear equation of state (including potential phase transitions) implies major uncertainties, the SN 1987A neutrino measurements raise new puzzles, and tracing a possible correlation of NS spins and kicks requires still more refined SN simulations.

This article reviews the development and achievements of the Jinping Underground Nuclear Astrophysics ( JUNA) experimental platform and focuses on the direct measurement of reaction rates inside or near the Gamow window in deep-underground astrophysical experiments. It discusses the advantages of conducting experiments in the deep-underground environment of the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL), which provides significant shielding from cosmic rays along with milliampere-level intensity from the JUNA accelerator. This shielding and high intensity are crucial for accurately measuring very-low-cross-section nuclear reactions essential to understanding astrophysical processes, such as the synthesis of heavy elements in stars from neutron sources and CNO cycle leakage. The manuscript also covers technological achievements, including advancements in ion sources, accelerators, detectors, and targets used in the JUNA experiment. The physics results from these experiments provide valuable data for key reactions, such as neutron source reactions and radiative capture reactions, as well as for the production of heavy elements in early stars. Future plans for the JUNA experiment are also outlined.

Accurate neutrino transport is crucial for reliably modeling explosive astrophysical events like core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) and neutron star mergers (NSMs). However, in these extremely neutrino-dense systems, flavor oscillations exhibit challenging nonlinear effects rooted in neutrino–neutrino forward scattering. Evidence is quickly accumulating that these collective phenomena can substantially affect explosion dynamics, neutrino and gravitational-wave signals, nucleosynthesis, and kilonova light curves. We review the progress made so far on the difficult and conceptually deep question of how to correctly include this physics in simulations of CCSNe and NSMs. Our aim is to take a broad view of where the problem stands and provide a critical assessment of where it is headed.

The recent lattice QCD calculations of the neutron and proton electric dipole moments and the CP-violating πNN coupling constant due to the θ term are reviewed. Progress toward nucleon electric dipole moment calculations, including the Weinberg three-gluon operator, the quark chromoelectric dipole moment operator, and their renormalization, is also discussed.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN became operational in 2009 and has since then produced a plethora of physics results from proton–proton ( pp) collisions. This short review covers results that relate to soft quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with a focus on nondiffractive physics at midrapidity. Most of the presented results are based on transverse momentum spectra and related derived observables, including multiplicity, the average transverse momentum, and various particle ratios. Additionally, the phenomenon of the observed ridge and its potential connection to the formation of a quark–gluon plasma in pp collisions are discussed. The goals of the review are to introduce the topics and provide references for scientists joining the LHC program and to highlight what we consider to be the most interesting results and open questions, to inspire novel measurements.

We discuss the current understanding of charmonium and bottomonium behavior in the deconfined medium produced in such collisions, and we compare the currently accessible observables with predictions from state-of-the-art theoretical models. We also discuss the open questions and explain how future heavy-ion experiments aim to clarify these aspects.

Solid-state phonon and charge detectors probe the scattering of weakly interacting particles, such as dark matter and neutrinos, through their low recoil thresholds. Recent advancements have pushed sensitivity to eV-scale energy depositions, uncovering previously unseen low-energy excess backgrounds. While some arise from known processes such as thermal radiation, luminescence, and stress, others remain unexplained. This review examines these backgrounds, their possible origins, and parallels to low-energy effects in solids, an understanding of which is essential for interpreting particle interactions at and below the eV scale.

The discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider has opened the door to a new realm of physics, where high-energy accelerators are essential to explore more fundamental laws. In this article, we share our vision regarding the future of high-energy physics and accelerators, particularly focusing on the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) and Super Proton-Proton Collider (SPPC) projects proposed by Chinese scientists in September 2012. Following the recent completion of the CEPC accelerator's technical design report, we review its main physics drives, technical design, and related technology development. The construction of the CEPC will become technologically viable upon the completion of its engineering design report, expected in approximately 3 years. Efforts are also underway to advance technologies for the SPPC.
