The concept of z-scaling reflecting the general features of particle substructure, constituent interaction and mechanism of particle formation is reviewed. Experimental data on the cross sections obtained at ISR, SpS and Tevatron are used…
While jet quenching in relativistic heavy-ion collisions has been extensively studied over decades, the polarization of quenched hadrons has rarely been discussed. It has recently been proposed that the correlations of dihadron polarization…
Based on the formalism presented in [1], we make a systematic study of spin polarizations of hadrons with different spins including vector mesons, spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 hyperons and spin correlations of hadron-hadron such as…
In the past few years a wealth of high quality data has made possible to test current theoretical ideas about the properties of hadrons subject to extreme conditions of density and temperature. The relativistic heavy-ion program carried out…
Hadron colliders can provide important tests of BFKL `small-x' dynamics. We discuss two examples of such tests, the inclusive dijet jet cross section at large rapidity separation and the number of associated `mini-jets' in Higgs boson…
We discuss recent developments concerning the in-medium properties of hadrons in dense and hot matter. The theoretical approaches are discussed in connection with the interpretation of experimental data from intermediate energy machines up…
An analysis of hadron abundances in heavy ion collisions from SPS to RHIC energy within the statistical-thermal model is presented. Pb--Pb collisions at 40 A GeV are analysed for the first time here. Unlike stated in similar recent studies,…
The past decades witnessed the golden era of hadron physics, which gives us a good opportunity to study the physics happening in a transient period of time. The development on the singly heavy baryons indicates that there exists the fine…
One of the fundamental questions in the field of subatomic physics is what happens to matter at extreme densities and temperatures as may have existed in the first microseconds after the Big Bang and exists, perhaps, in the core of dense…
We present a vision for the next decade of hadron physics in which the central question being addressed is how one might win new physical insight into the way hadronic systems work. The topics addressed include the relevance of model…
The utilisation of semiconductor materials as detectors and devices operating in high radiation environments, at the future particle colliders, in space applications or in medicine and industry, necessitates to obtain radiation harder…
This review describes the development of the physics of hadronic cross sections up to recent LHC results and cosmic ray experiments. We present here a comprehensive review - written with a historical perspective - about total cross-sections…
In this contribution we summarize experimental information and theoretical results for the dissociation cross sections of charmonium by light hadrons. Theoretical predictions for these RHIC-related processes differ by orders of magnitude…
This is a cursory review of diffractive studies ( mostly elastic scattering)at the LHC with physical interpretation of the experimental data and comments to related problems of theory.
We review what is currently known about the transverse spin structure of hadrons, in particular from observables that can be analyzed within a collinear framework. These effects have been around for 40 years and represent a critical test of…
We review the status of theoretical calculations relevant for electroweak physics at hadron colliders. The large parton flux at high energy gives rise to events where different pairs of partons interact contemporarily with large momentum…
The turnaround radius of a large structure in an accelerating universe has been studied only for spherical structures, while real astronomical systems deviate from spherical symmetry. We show that, for small deviations from spherical…
The class of interference fragmentation functions, arising from interference among different hadron production channels, is reconsidered. Their symmetry properties with respect to chiral transformations allow building spin asymmetries where…
The first hyperon was discovered about 70 years ago, but the nature of these particles, particularly with regard to multistrange hyperons, and many of their properties can still be considered to be literally strange. A dedicated and…
Surprisingly enough, the ratio of elastic to inelastic cross sections of proton interactions increases with energy in the interval correspond- ing to ISR - LHC (i.e. from 10 GeV to 10 TeV). That leads to special features of their spatial…
