We re\,examine the theory of hadronic photon-nucleon interactions at the quark-gluon level. The possibility of multiple parton collisions in a single photon-nucleon collision requires an eikonal treatment of the high-energy scattering…

A general decomposition of the amplitudes for the $2\to 2$ processes $\gamma\nu\to\gamma\nu$ and $\gamma\gamma\to\nu\bar{\nu}$ is obtained using gauge invariance and Bose symmetry. The restrictions implied by this decomposition are…
Factorization violating effects in hadron scattering are due mainly to spectator-spectator interactions. While it is known that these interactions cancel in inclusive cross sections, like for the Drell-Yan process, not much is known about…
We show that the data on $\gamma p$ and $\gamma\gamma$ interactions can be derived from the $pp$ and $\bar p p$ forward scattering amplitudes using vector meson dominance and the additive quark model. The nucleon-nucleon data are…

It is shown that in ultrahigh energy inelastic neutrino-nucleon(nucleus) scattering the cross sections for the boson-hadron(nucleus) reactions should exhibit geometric scaling on the single variable tau_A =Q2/Q2_{sat,A}. The dependence on…

Experimental data on the polarization of hyperons, inclusively produced in hadron-hadron collisions, have been analyzed. It is shown that the existing data can be described by a function of transverse momentum (Pt) and two scaling variables…
We discuss the effects of the $s$-channel unitarization on the $x$ and $Q^{2}$ dependence of structure functions. The unitarization is implemented at the level of photoabsorption cross sections by resorting to the light--cone wave functions…
The cross sections for the processes \gamma \nu --> \gamma\gamma \nu, \gamma\gamma -->\gamma\nu\bar{\nu} and \nu\bar{\nu} -->\gamma\gamma\gamma are calculated with the aid of an effective Lagrangian derived from the Standard model. These…
In electron positron annihilation, changing quarks into the final hadron states is being described by fragmentation function. Based on the scaling hypothesis, this function will be independent from the center of mass energy. Gluon radiation…
We argue that high gluon density effects at small $x$ are important for the calculation of ultra-high energy neutrino nucleon cross sections due to the phenomenon of geometric scaling. We calculate the cross section for $\nu N \to \mu X$,…

We analyze the pattern of the onset of complete absorption (the black limit) in the high energy hadron-hadron collisions. The black limit arises due to the hard and soft interaction dynamics as a function of the impact parameters b. Both…
