Using a QCD inspired model developed by our group for particle production, the Interacting Gluon Model (IGM), we have made a systematic analysis of all available data on leading particle spectra. These data include diffractive collisions…
The production of strange particles (kaons, hyperons) and hypernuclei in light charged particle induced reactions in the energy range of a few GeV (2-15 GeV) has become a topic of active research in several facilities (e.g., HypHI and PANDA…
Modern precision experiments trapping low-energy particles require detailed simulations of particle trajectories and spin precession to determine systematic measurement limitations and apparatus deficiencies. We developed PENTrack, a tool…
Semi-inclusive processes are very promising to investigate $XYZ$ hadrons at the next generation of electron-hadron facilities, because they generally boast higher cross sections. We extend our formalism of exclusive photoproduction to…
Recent experimental measurements of high $p_T$ hadron spectra and jet correlation at RHIC are analyzed within a parton model which incoporates initial jet production and final propagation in heavy-ion collisions. The suppresion of single…
We release an event generator package, GR@PPA 2.9, for simulating the direct (single) photon and diphoton (double photon) production in hadron collisions. The included programs were used in our previous studies, in which we have explicitly…
Hard, or high transverse momentum, pion photoproduction can be a tool for probing the parton structure of the beam and target. We discuss the perturbative and soft processes that contribute, and show how regions where perturbative processes…

We consider QCD based model of hadrons interaction in which gluons density in wave function of initial state is low in rapidity space and real hadrons are produced by decay of color field strings. Hadrons production processes in pp and p…
Collider experiments, such as those at the Large Hadron Collider, use the Geant4 toolkit to simulate particle-detector interactions with high accuracy. However, these experiments increasingly require larger amounts of simulated data,…

Applications of a simple thermal model to ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions are presented. We compute abundances of various hadrons, including particles with strange quarks, the pT-spectra, and the HBT radii for the pion. Surprising…
The interpretation of extensive air shower measurements, produced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays, relies on the correct modeling of the hadron-air interactions that occur during the shower development. The majority of hadronic particles…
