Direct measurements of the $\rho^0$p interaction have remained so far elusive, with most insights derived indirectly from photoproduction or low-energy partial wave analyses. This letter presents the first direct observation of the $\rho^0$p interaction, obtained through two-particle correlations measured in high-multiplicity, ultrarelativistic proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV by the ALICE Collaboration at the LHC.

Sci.) et al.
The first measurement at midrapidity ($|y|< 0.5$) of the production yield of the strange-charm baryons $\Xi_{\rm c}^+$ and $\Xi_{\rm c}^0$ as a function of charged-particle multiplicity in proton$-$proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC is reported. The $\Xi_{\rm c}^+$ baryon is reconstructed via the $\Xi_{\rm c}^+ \rightarrow \Xi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ decay channel in the range $ 4 < p_{\rm T} <12$ GeV/$c$, while the $\Xi_{\rm c}^0$ baryon is reconstructed via both the $\Xi_{\rm c}^0 \longrightarrow \Xi^- \pi^+$ and $\Xi_{\rm c}^0 \rightarrow {\rm e}^+ \nu_{\rm e}$ decay channels in the range $2 < p_{\rm T} <12$ GeV/$c$.
