RHIC experiment results of forming Quark-Gluon Plasma and a possible bubble was news few months ago. I cannot find any follow up news after that. Does anybody know anything new in this front? I am especially interested to hear about the bubble formed.

Edit: The following are some links about this story.

Did a bubble actually formed? What have they found about the bubble? I want more scientific details than one would expect from a newspaper article.

Hi Sony, and welcome to Physics Stack Exchange! This is a good question, I'm actually having trouble finding information on it myself. Could you perhaps link to some reference for the "bubble" discovery to give us a starting point? (Also, it would be better if you can be more specific about what you're looking for, not just "does anybody know anything new?".) – David Zaslavsky♦ Nov 16 '11 at 3:01
Why don't you read up a bit on the new heavy ion results from CMS? cms.web.cern.ch/news/new-cms-results-heavy-ion-collisions – anna v Nov 16 '11 at 13:07

@annav: Thanks for the URL for a site. However, that site does not provide an answer to my question. – Sony Nov 16 '11 at 19:52
