The final stage of a relativistic heavy-ion collision is a hadron gas. Final-state interactions therein distort the $p_T$ spectrum of particles coming from the phase transition upon cooling the quark-gluon plasma. Using recent…
If neutral Higgs bosons will be discovered at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) then an important subsequent issue will be the investigation of their CP nature. Higgs boson decays into tau lepton pairs are particularly suited in this…
We consider pion condensation in QCD at finite isospin density $\mu_I$ and zero temperature using two-flavor chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT). The pressure is calculated to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the low-energy expansion. In…
The equation of state for the pion gas is analyzed within the third virial approximation. The second virial coefficient is found from the pion-pion- scattering data, while the third one is considered as a free parameter. The proposed model…

The ALICE TPC provides excellent charged particle tracking for the study of pp and Pb-Pb collisions at LHC. The TPC also allows particle identification via the measurement of the specific ionisation dE/dx. At high pT (pT > 3 GeV/c) this is…
We propose a measurement of leading neutrons spectra at LHC in order to extract inclusive $\pi^+ p$ and $\pi^+\pi^+$ cross-sections with high $p_T$ jets production. The cross-sections for these processes are simulated with the use of parton…
The influence of the HBT effect on the momentum spectra of independently produced pions is studied using the method developed earlier for discussion of multiplicity distributions. It is shown that in this case all the spectra and…
The intermediate $p_T$ region (2 - 5 GeV/$c$) in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC has a rich physics content. The (anti)proton to pion ratio at the intermediate $p_T$ gives us a powerful tool to investigate the bulk properties of the hot…
We discuss the charged pion condensation phenomenon in the linear sigma model, in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field. The critical temperature is obtained as a function of the external magnetic field, assuming the transition…
The possibility of pion--pair formation in a hot pion gas, based on the bosonic gap equation, is pointed out and discussed in detail. The critical temperature for condensation of pion pairs (Evans--Rashid transition) is determined as a…
Using the VISHNU hybrid model that couples (2+1)-dimensional viscous hydrodynamics to a microscopic hadronic transport model, we calculate the multiplicity, p_T spectra and elliptic flow for pions, kaons, and protons in 2.76 A TeV Pb+Pb…
A model of hybridized bosons and fermions is studied beyond the mean field approximation. The divergent boson self-energy at zero temperature makes the Cooper pairing of fermions impossible.The frequency and momentum dependence of the self-…
The ALICE detector recorded Pb-Pb collisions at sqrtsNN = 2.76 TeV at the LHC in November-December 2010. We present the results of the measurements that provide a first characterization of the hot and dense state of strongly-interacting…

Color octet bosons are a universal prediction of models in which the 750 GeV diphoton resonance corresponds to a pion of a QCD-like composite sector. We show that the existing searches for dijet and photon plus jet resonances at the LHC…
