We analyze the scaling properties of inclusive hadron production in proton-proton and in heavy ion collisions from fixed target to collider energies. At large transverse momentum p_T, the invariant cross section exhibits a power-like…
In the standard pQCD picture particles are produced via the parton jet fragmentation process. However, there are also other production mechanisms like higher twist (HT) processes. A usual example of a HT process is a direct production of an…
PHENIX has measured high transverse momentum (pT) identified hadrons in different collision species and energies in the last five RHIC runs. The systematic study of the high pT hadron production provides an idea on interaction of hard…
Scaling of single photon production in $pp$ and $p\overline{p}$ collisions is studied. It is empirically observed the available data scales $\sim \sqrt{s}/p_T^5$ for $x_T=2p_T/\sqrt{s} \leq 0.1$ and $\sim (\sqrt{s})^{3.3}/p_T^9$ for larger…
The problem of forward production of hadrons in heavy-ion collision at RHIC is revisited with modification of the theoretical treatment on the one hand and with the use of new data on the other. The basic formalism for hadronization remains…
We discuss high-pT production processes at forward rapidities in hadron-hadron collisions, and describe recent results from using QCD high-energy factorization in forward jet production at the LHC.
The higher-twist (HT) contribution to the charged kaon pair production in the high energy proton-antiproton collisions at large transverse momentum $p_T$ is investigated by using the frozen coupling constant approach for various kaon…
I discuss a number of novel phenomenological features of QCD in high transverse momentum reactions. The presence of direct higher-twist processes, where a proton is produced directly in the hard subprocess, can explain the "baryon anomaly"…
We present measurements of strange and multi-strange hadrons in p+p collisions at $\sqrt{s}$= 200 GeV measured by STAR. We will compare these preliminary results to leading-order (LO) and next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD models…
We present a study of high-$p_T$ photon and pion production in hadronic interactions, focusing on a comparison of the yields with expectations from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD (NLO pQCD). We examine the impact of phenomenological…
For heavy-ion collisions at RHIC a scaling behavior is found in the dependencies on azimuthal angle $\phi$ and impact parameter $b$ for pion production at high $p_T$ essentially independent of the hadronization process. The scaling variable…
The suppression of hadrons with large transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) in central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV compared to a binary scaled p+p reference is one of the major discoveries at RHIC. To understand the nature…
Heavy quarkonium production at high transverse momentum ($p_T$) in hadronic collisions is explored in the QCD factorization approach. We find that the leading power in the $1/p_T$ expansion is responsible for high $p_T$ regime, while the…
An overview of the correlation among high-p_T hadrons produced in heavy-ion collisions is presented. Emphasis is placed on the physical processes that can quantitatively account for the data on correlations in p_T, \eta and \phi on the near…
We show that the QCD color transparency of higher-twist contributions to inclusive hadroproduction cross sections, where baryons are produced directly in a short-distance subprocess, can explain several remarkable features of high-$p_T$…
High $p_{\rm T}$ hadrons in the small systems of $d/^3$He+Au and $p$+Al/Au collisions have been measured at the midrapidity ($|\eta|<0.35$) as well as at the forward and backward rapidities ($1.2<|\eta|<2.4$) at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200GeV. A…
We first show that the pions produced at high $p_T$ in heavy-ion collisions over a wide range of high energies exhibit a scaling behavior when the distributions are plotted in terms of a scaling variable. We then use the recombination model…
