Some of the important results from the COSY-Juelich spin programme are summarised. These include the measurement of the deuteron beam momentum through the excitation of a depolarising resonance, which allowed the mass of the eta-meson to be determined to high precision. The charge exchange of polarised deuterons on hydrogen gave rise to a detailed study of the spin dependence of large angle neutron-proton elastic scattering amplitudes. The measurements of the cross section and analysing powers for pion production in both pp and pn collisions at 353 MeV could be described very successfully in terms of a partial wave decomposition.

The experimental hadronic physics programme at the COoler SYnchrotron of the Forschungszentrum Juelich terminated at the end of 2014. After describing the accelerator and the associated facilities, a review is presented of the major achievements in the field realized over the twenty years of intense research activity.
We present a measurement of the transverse intensity distributions of the COSY proton beam at the target interaction point at ANKE at the injection energy of 45 MeV, and after acceleration at 2.65 GeV. At 2.65 GeV, the machine acceptance was determined as well. From the intensity distributions the beam size is determined, and together with the measured machine acceptance, the dimensions of a storage cell for the double-polarized experiments with the polarized internal gas target at the ANKE spectrometer are specified. An optimum storage cell for the ANKE experiments should have dimensions of 15mm x 20mm x 390mm (vertical x horizontal x longitudinal), whereby a luminosity of about 2.5*10^29 cm^-2*s^-1 with beams of 10^10 particles stored in COSY could be reached.
A polarized atomic beam source was developed for the polarized internal storage-cell gas target at the magnet spectrometer ANKE of COSY-Julich. The intensities of the beams injected into the storage cell, measured with a compression tube, are $7.5cdot 10^{16}$ hydrogen atoms/s (two hyperfine states) and $3.9cdot 10^{16}$ deuterium atoms/s (three hyperfine states). For the hydrogen beam the achieved vector polarizations are $p_{rm z}approxpm0.92$. For the deuterium beam, the obtained combinations of vector and tensor ($p_{rm zz}$) polarizations are $p_{rm z}approxpm 0.90$ (with a constant $p_{rm zz}approx +0.86$), and $p_{rm zz}=+0.90$ or $p_{rm zz}=-1.71$ (both with vanishing $p_{rm z}$). The paper includes a detailed technical description of the apparatus and of the investigations performed during the development.
New data on the production of single neutral pions in the $pdrightarrow{}^3textrm{He},pi^0$ reaction are presented. For fifteen proton beam momenta between $p_p=1.60;textrm{GeV}/c$ and $p_p=1.74;textrm{GeV}/c$, differential cross sections are determined over a large fraction of the backward hemisphere. Since the only previous systematic measurements of single-pion production at these energies were made in collinear kinematics, the present work constitutes a significant extension of the current knowledge on this reaction. Even this far above the production threshold, significant changes are found in the behaviour of the angular distributions over small intervals in beam momentum.
This short overview includes recent results from the ALICE Collaboration on anisotropic flow of charged and identified particles in sqrt(sNN) = 2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions. We also discuss charge dependent and event plane dependent azimuthal correlations that are important in tests of the chiral magnetic effect, as well as understanding the dynamics of the system evolution and hadronization process. Lastly, we present ALICE results obtained with a new technique, the event shape engineering, which allows to perform a physical analysis on events with very large or small flow.
