Generalized parton distributions provide information on the longitudinal and transverse distribution of partons in the fast moving nucleon. Furthermore, they contain information on the spin structure of the nucleon. First results of a…
We discuss the NLO evolution of quark transversity densities and of the parton distribution function for linearly polarized gluons in a linearly polarized hadron. A supersymmetric relation between the NLO evolution kernels for transversity…

Here, we discuss QCD predictions on multiplicities in parton and dipole approaches. The most general treatment is based on the notion of the generating functions. The generating function G is defined as $G(u,y)=\sum_nu^nP_n(y)$, where $P_n$…
A physical model for parton densities in hadrons, based on Gaussian momentum fluctuations of partons and hadronic baryon-meson fluctuations, is presented. The model has previously been shown to describe proton structure function data, and…
Nucleon-nucleon scattering is studied to next-to-leading order in a partially-quenched extension of an effective field theory used to describe multi-nucleon systems in QCD. The partially-quenched nucleon-nucleon amplitudes will play an…
Diffractive parton distribution functions give the probability to find a parton in a hadron if the hadron is diffractively scattered. We provide an operator definition of these functions and discuss their relation to diffractive deeply…

In this talk we discuss the effect upon the di-proton, di-neutron and deuteron of a time variation of the QCD gauge coupling. We describe how a time evolution of the size of extra dimensions can give rise to such a variation and show how…
We present a program to measure the parton densities in the pomeron using diffractive deep inelastic scattering and diffractive photoproduction, and to test the resulting parton densities by applying them to other processes such as the…
A simple, new method for solving for the $Q^2$ evolution of parton distributions in perturbative QCD using cubic splines is described and applied to the evolution of nonsinglet quark distributions.
We determine the evolution of a cluster of quantum vortices initially placed at the centre of a larger vortex-free region. We find that the cluster spreads out spatially. This spreading motion consists of two effects: the rapid evaporation…
We will discuss how the problem of high-energy hadron-hadron (dipole-dipole) scattering at low momentum transfer can be approached from the point of view of lattice QCD, by means of Monte Carlo numerical simulations.
An interpretation of scale-invariant multiplicity fluctuations inside hadronic jets is presented. It is based on the branching mechanism with the angular ordering of soft partons in sequential branchings. A relationship with fractal…
We analyze fluctuations of quark number and electric charge, in 2-flavour QCD at finite temperature and vanishing net baryon number density. In the hadronic phase we find that an enhancement of charge fluctuations arises from contributions…
We review applicability of QCD factorization theorem to multiple scattering in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering. We show why A^{1/3}-type nuclear enhancement can be calculated consistently in perturbative QCD. We derive the…
We present an overview of recent developments, based on on-shell techniques, in the calculation of multi-parton scattering amplitudes at one loop that are relevant for phenomenological studies at hadron colliders. These new on-shell methods…
We briefly discuss the status of double parton scattering (DPS) on both theoretical and experimental sides and summarize the state of the naive DPS model, where the scatterers are taken completely independent. We then elaborate on some of…
Colour evolution and parton branching at the amplitude level have become important theoretical frameworks to improve parton showers, and are algorithms in their own right: they complement shower development by resummation algorithms capable…
An essential prerequisite for quark-gluon plasma production in nuclear collisions is cross-talk between the partons from different nucleons in the colliding nuclei. The initial density of partons is determined by the parton distribution…
