Event-by-event (ebe) fluctuations in mean pseudorapidity values of relativistic charged particles in full phase space is studied by analysing experimental data on $^{16}O-AgBr$ collisions at 14.5A, 60A, and 200A GeV/c and $^{32}S-AgBr$…

A surprising excess of protons at intermediate $p_T$, 2-5GeV/c, has been observed in Au+Au collisions at RHIC, for which the source is not known. In p+p collisions, particles at this $p_T$ arise from jet fragmentation, however the observed…

Cluster production is investigated in central collisions of Ca+Ca, Ni+Ni, 96Zr+96Zr, 96Ru+96Ru, Xe+CsI and Au+Au reactions at 0.4A GeV incident energy. We find that the multiplicity of clusters with charge Z > 2 grows quadratically with the…

We explore predictions of the wounded quark model for particle production and properties of the initial state formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. The approach is applied uniformly to A+A collisions in a wide collision energy…
Results on charged particle production in p+p, d+Au and Au+Au collisions at RHIC energies (sqrt(s_NN) = 19.6 to 200 GeV) are presented. The data exhibit remarkable, and simple, scaling behaviors, the most prominent of which are discussed.
With growing multiplicity, the pp and pA collisions enter the domain where the macroscopic description (thermodynamics and hydrodynamics) becomes applicable. We discuss this situation, first with simplified thought experiments, then with…
In this paper, we show that multiplicity spectra of direct photons in A+A and d+Au collisions at different centrality classes and different energies exhibit geometrical scaling, {\em i.e.}, they depend on a specific combination of number of…
