I give a brief overview of the status of lattice QCD, concentrating on topics relevant to phenomenology. I discuss the calculation of the light quark spectrum, the lattice prediction of $\alpha_\MS(M_Z)$, and the calculation of $f_B$.
We present a triple-Regge analysis of the available pp --> p + X high-energy data accounting for absorptive corrections. We describe a model for high-energy soft interactions which includes the whole set of multi-Pomeron (n --> m) vertices,…
We show that the onset and rise of QCD mini-jets provide the dynamical mechanism behind the appearance of a soft edge in pp collisions around ISR energies and thus such a soft edge is built in our mini-jet model with soft gluon resummation.…
A brief summary of results on Pb+Pb collisions from ALICE, ATLAS, and CMS is presented covering global event properties, anisotropic flow, jet quenching, and quarkonia.
Precision computations of QCD and QCD+electroweak emission scattering processes will play an important role in understanding experimental data from the LHC, and thereby in uncovering new physics beyond the Standard Model. Recent years have…
I have been asked to give an critical overview on the experimental results shown in the conference with a emphasis of what has been learned and the challenges that are ahead in trying to understand the physics of the strongly interacting…
With Run-II of the LHC starting its final year of data-taking, high precision theoretical predictions through Monte-Carlo event generators whose uncertainties match that of the recorded data are of highest importance. This talk summarises…
The measurement of the production of particles coming from hard scattering processes covers a fundamental role in the characterization of the system formed in heavy-ion collisions, allowing to probe the microscopic processes underlying the…
We present an efficient way to calculate the effect of soft QCD radiation at one loop, which is needed for predictions at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. We use rapidity coordinates and isolate the divergences in the…
We review two inter-related topics. First, we consider the behaviour of "soft" scattering observables, such as sigma_{tot}, dsigma_{el}/dt, dsigma_{SD}/dtdM^2, particle multiplicities etc., at high-energy proton-(anti)proton colliders. We…
During the five days of this conference a very dense scientific program has enlighted our research fields, with the presentation of large number of interesting lectures. I will try to summarize the theoretical aspects of some of these new…
As multiplicity increases at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, an opportunity arises to explore the information contained in the full QCD power spectrum on an event-by-event basis. This paper lays the foundations for a framework to encode and…
Progress towards a complete velocity power counting in non-relativistic effective field theories, especially NRQCD, is motivated and summarised.
In this short paper we provide an overview of new results from the ATLAS physics program at the LHC as of spring 2015. We separately summarize the results from p+Pb collisions and Pb+Pb collisions along with some of their interpretations.
The current experimental and theoretical status of hadron and jet production at large transverse momentum in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions is summarised. The most important RHIC results are compared to theoretical parton energy…
Some of the new developments in the theory of heavy ion collisions are reviewed. Much of the last progress have been triggered by the high energies available at RHIC. In the near future, the LHC will extend the energy reach in heavy ions by…
This is the write-up of the summary talk on theory activities in the heavy-ion community as presented at Quark Matter 2025. It contains a (biased) selection of results from the parallel program of the conference. The progress is reported…
Hard and soft QCD dynamics are both important in charmonium hadroproduction, as presented here through a next-to-leading order QCD matrix element calculation combined with the colour evaporation model. Observed $x_F$ and $p_\perp$…
Some issues in inclusive and exclusive diffractive processes are discussed.
A special class of soft quantum measurements as a physical model of the fuzzy measurements widely used in physics is introduced and its information properties are studied in detail.
