Description
The LHC has run p-Pb collisions at √s_{NN} = 5.02 TeV in addition to √s_{NN} = 2.76 TeV Pb-Pb and the pp physics program. The p-Pb program was conceived originally to investigate initial-state effects in the collisions of nuclei. The p-Pb results appear to exhibit a lack of strong initial-state effects, but are surprising in that they reveal a strong similarity to the final-state hydrodynamic effects observed in Pb-Pb collisions. In this presentation, I will summarize the p-Pb results from the LHC and place them in perspective with what is observed in pp and Pb-Pb. This will include results on particle production, identified particle spectra, correlation measurements, large transverse momentum jets and hadrons, and other measurements.
