   Electron-Ion Collider - taking us to the next QCD frontier

   Jian-Wei Qiu🇺🇸

   In this talk, I demonstrate that the proposed Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will be an ideal and unique future facility to address many overarching questions about QCD and strong interaction physics at one place. The EIC will be the world's first polarized electron-proton (and light ion), as well as the first electron-nucleus collider at flexible collision energies. With its high luminosity and beam polarization, the EIC distinguishes itself from HERA and the other fixed target electron-hadron facilities around the world. The EIC is capable of taking us to the next QCD frontier to explore the glue that binds us all.

   Multi-strange baryon production in pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at LHC measured with ALICE

   Domenico Colella (for the ALICE Collaboration)🇮🇹

   Transverse momentum spectra and yields of charged $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ at mid-rapidity in pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC have been measured by the ALICE Collaboration. These baryons are identified by reconstruction of their weak decay topology, in modes with only charged decay products, using the excellent tracking and particle identification capabilities of the detector. The recent measurements of the multi-strange baryon production relative to non-strange particles in p-Pb collisions are presented: this would help to understand the change in relative strangeness production from pp collisions to Pb-Pb collisions. Results on the nuclear modification factors for the charged $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ particles, compared with those for other light particles, are also reported.
