Results of the chiral quark models for the soft matrix elements involving pions and photons, relevant for high-energy processes, are reviewed. We discuss quantities related to the generalized parton distributions of the pion: the parton…
In this talk I describe recent progress in investigating the high energy limit of perturbative QCD. I review some of the steps that have been done in the direction of constructing an effective field theory for this limit. I describe some of…
High-energy particles traversing a medium experience modified dispersion. In the Quark-Gluon Plasma, such dispersion affects jet propagation and transport properties and should be determined better. Above $\sim 2T_c$ we expect strongly…
Higher-order tree-level processes in strong laser fields, i.e. cascades, are in general extremely difficult to calculate, but in some regimes the dominant contribution comes from a sequence of first-order processes, i.e. nonlinear Compton…
We propose a QCD motivated theoretical approach to high energy soft interactions, which successfully describes the experimental data on total, elastic and diffraction cross sections. We predict that the survival probability for the…
We discuss $1/Q$ corrections to hard processes in QCD where $Q$ is a large mass parameter like the total energy in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. The main problem we address ourselves to is whether these corrections to different processes…
We study the pairwise interaction of reggeized gluons and quarks in the Regge limit of perturbative QCD. The interactions are represented as integral kernels in the transverse momentum space and as operators in the impact parameter space.…
We consider the flavour non-singlet Reggeon within the context of perturbative QCD. This consists of ladders built out of ``reggeized'' quarks. We propose a method for the numerical solution of the integro-differential equation for the…
The perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is quite successful in the description of main features of multiparticle production processes. Ten most appealing characteristics are described in this brief review talk and compared with QCD…
We compute the two-loop QCD corrections to amplitudes for processes $g g \to H g, q g \to H q$ and $q \bar{q} \to H g$ in the limit when the Higgs transverse momentum is larger than the top quark mass, $p_\perp \gg m_t$. These amplitudes…
Coherence phenomena, and the non-universality of parton structure of the effective Pomeron are explained. New hard phenomena directly calculable in QCD such as diffractive electroproduction of states with $M^2\ll Q^2$ as well as new options…
We discuss the QED-generalized leading-twist light-cone distribution amplitudes of heavy mesons, that appear in QCD$\times$QED factorization theorems for exclusive two-body $B$ decays. In the presence of electrically charged particles,…
We study the first power correction to the heavy electron form factor in QED and show that it factorizes as a derivative operator. We discuss the result in QED with no light fermions, where the first power correction can be written…
The structure of hadronic form factors at high energies and their deviations from perturbative quantum chromodynamics provide insight on nonperturbative dynamics. Using an approach that is consistent with dispersion relations, we construct…
I briefly review: (a) some recent developments in the theory of hard scattering in QCD with polarized beams, and (b) coherent hard diffraction (that is, hard scattering in diffractive events, with the Pomeron behaving in an apparently…
QCD is the theory of strong interactions and non-perturbative methods have been developed to address the confinement property of QCD. Many experimental measurements probe the confining dynamics, and it is well-known that hard scattering…
We review the extension of the factorization formalism of perturbative QCD to {\it coherent} soft rescattering associated with hard scattering in high energy nuclear collisions. We emphasize the ability to quantify high order corrections…
Higher twist corrections refer to a certain class of contributions to hard processes in strong interactions that are suppressed by a power of the hard scale. This is a very broad field of research which is becoming more and more important…
The pion electromagnetic form factor is investigated by using the dispersion relation with the superconvergence condition, which was proposed to synthesize the vector meson dominance model and QCD. The absorptive part is given as an…
The paper presents the QCD description of the small $x$ behaviour of parton distribution functions in the leading twist of Wilson operator product expansion. The smooth transition between the cases of the soft and hard Pomerons is obtained.…
