We obtain explicit expressions for the two-particle differential cross section and the two-particle angular correlation function in the hard-scattering production of massive partons in order to exhibit the ``ridge" structure on the away…
The otherwise exponential high-energy proton-proton diffraction cone has two prominent structures, which are namely the "break" staying fixed around $t \approx -0.1$ GeV$^2$ and the "dip" moving with increasing energy logarithmically…
Recently the TOTEM experiment at the LHC has released measurements at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV of the proton-proton total cross section, $\sigma_{tot}$, and the ratio of the real to imaginary parts of the forward elastic amplitude, $\rho$. Since…
Motivated by the need for an absolute polarimeter to determine the beam polarization for the forthcoming RHIC spin program, we study the spin dependence of the proton-proton elastic scattering amplitudes at high energy and small momentum…

We study the structure of jets in proton-proton collisions at LHC energies using \textsc{Pythia} 8 Monte Carlo simulations. We demonstrate that the radial jet profiles exhibit scaling properties with charged-hadron event multiplicity over a…
The novel phenomena observed in particle angular correlations are reviewed. They include the double-peak away-side azimuthal correlations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and the long-range pseudorapidity near-side (ridge) correlations…
The pseudorapidity density and multiplicity distribution of charged particles produced in proton-proton collisions at the LHC, at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV, were measured in the central pseudorapidity region |$\eta$| < 1.…
The ridge signal, which is long-ranged in rapidity, in the di-hadron correlations in high-multiplicity p-p and p-A collisions opened up a whole new research area in high-energy QCD. Although the ridge had been observed in A-A collisions and…
Spin-dependent pomeron effects are analyzed for elastic $pp$ scattering and calculations for spin-dependent differential cross sections, analyzing power and double-spin correlation parameters are carried out for the energy range of the…
The study and understanding of the details of proton-proton collisions is important since they are the benchmark for the comparison with heavy ion results. In the present work we have studied the $\Delta\eta\Delta\phi$ correlations as a…
We describe data on elastic $pp$ scattering at ISR and LHC energies using the analytical representation of the amplitude as the sum of three exponentials equipped with complex phases. In addition, we take into account the Coulomb and…
Measurements of charged dihadron angular correlations are presented in proton-proton (pp) and Lead-Lead (PbPb) collisions, over a broad range of pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle, using the CMS detector at the LHC. In very high…
The diffraction slope parameter is investigated for elastic proton-proton and proton-antiproton scattering based on the all available experimental data at low momentum transfer values. Energy dependence of the elastic diffraction slopes is…
Transverse momentum correlations were recently measured by the ALICE collaboration at the LHC. A long-range structure in terms of relative pseudorapidity of particle pairs is observed. This may imply some signal of the initial state owing…
An effective Hamiltonian which could model the interaction between a tunneling proton and the conduction electrons of a metal is investigated. A remarkably simple correlation between the motion of the $TLS$-atom and an angular-momentum…
We argue that large fluctuations in the saturation momentum are necessary to explain the ATLAS and ALICE data on pA collisions measured at the LHC. Using a form for the distribution of fluctuations motivated by theoretical studies of the…
The Bialas-Bzdak model of elastic proton-proton scattering is generalized to the case when the real part of the parton-parton level forward scattering amplitude is non-vanishing. Such a generalization enables the model to describe well the…
Proton-Proton ($pp$) collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are simulated in order to study events with a high local density of charged particles produced in narrow pseudorapidty windows of $\Delta\eta$ = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5. The $pp$…
