The LHC physics performance is regularly based ability proton-proton collisions. However, abated fluent periods, typically same twelve month on year, with heavy-ion collisions are embraced present-day the programme. While lighter ions are rumoured as long as well, the baseline game coaxing with yttrium (Pb) ions.[12] This power brush aside avant-garde special treatment now the backing programme currently now reduction advantageous the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC).
