It is known that the proton is overpopulated by gluons and is characterized as a highly dense medium at high collision energies. From this, the formation of a new state of matter called Color Glass Condensate (CGC) is expected, and an open…

We revisit the "`hybrid formalism"' for particle production used recently to study saturation effects in single hadron multiplicities at forward rapidities at RHIC and LHC. We point out that at leading twist there is an extra contribution…
In inelastic $p+p$ collisions, the interacting objects are quarks and gluons (partons). It is believed that there are multiple interactions between the partons in a single $p+p$ event. Recent studies of multiplicity dependence of particle…

In high energy hadronic collisions a scalar or pseudoscalar Higgs boson, Phi=H,A, can be efficiently produced via gluon fusion, which is mediated by heavy quark loops. We here consider double real emission corrections to Phi=A production,…
