Description
We show that the recent ALICE measurement of the hadronic lead-lead cross section implies a small nucleon width, which is inconsistent with all state-of-the-art current global analyses of a wide set of experimental results. This inconsistency has several consequences for global analyses, both at a fundamental level as well as for quantities such as the bulk viscosity. The updated global Bayesian framework provides a better description of triple-differential observables such as the correlation between mean transverse momentum and anisotropic flow.
