We discuss the close relation between shadowing in deep-inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering and diffractive photo- and leptoproduction of hadrons from free nucleons. We show that the magnitude of nuclear shadowing at small Bjorken-x, as…

The relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC) offers many opportunities to study diffraction in pp, pA and AA collisions. Because both proton beams can be polarized, RHIC offers the unique possibility of studying polarization effects in…
There has been a revived interest in small-x resummation in recent times. The main motivation was its success in describing small-x HERA data without the inclusion of non-perturbative corrections. In this contribution I will review the…
We discuss the need to compare total cross-section measurements at LHC and HERA with each other and with available models in order to obtain a more precise prediction of the total hadronic cross-section at the future Linear Collider, thus…
The future goals of particle physics are classified from a theorist's point of view. The prospects of mass and mixing angle determination and of the top quark and Higgs boson discovery are discussed. It is shown that the most important…
