Abstract
Recent results from the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will be presented on PbPb and pPb collisions at sNN=2.76TeV and 5.02 TeV, respectively. A general discussion on the global features of heavy ion collisions — including charged particle production and its angular distributions — will be followed by various studies using “hard probes” of the created medium, such as jets, quarkonium states and electroweak gauge bosons. Finally, some of the surprising features of the recently acquired data on pPb collisions will be presented, including two-particle correlations.

Summary
CMS 2.76 TeV experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will be presented on and 5.02 TeV, respectively. ATLAS and CMS experiments serve a general purpose, and actively participate in the research program as well They both offer excellent jet reconstruction capabilities due to their extensive calorimetric coverage and precise inner tracker detectors. Their muon identification makes it possible to study quarkonium states as well as electroweak bosons (photons, leptonic decays of Z and W particles). They are capable to measure the momenta of charged particles to hundreds of GeV’s, and the pseudorapidity-coverage of their trackers make them ideal for two-particle correlation studies.
