High-energy, multi-component plasmas in which pair creation and annihilation, lepton-lepton scattering, lepton-proton scattering, and Comptonization all contribute to establishing the particle and photon distributions, are present in a…
Light-front field theory offers a scenario in which a constituent picture of hadrons may arise, but only if cutoffs that violate explicit covariance and gauge invariance are used. The perturbative renormalization group can be used to…

Within light-front quantization, hadrons can be represented on a Fock-space basis of configurations of elementary partons. The coefficients of the expansion are called light-front wave functions (LFWFs), and encode all the dynamical degrees…

We propose the inclusive semi-hard production, in proton-proton collisions, of two bottom-flavored hadrons, as well as of a single bottom-flavored hadron accompanied by a light jet, as novel channels for the manifestation of stabilization…
Vacuum fluctuations give rise to effective nonlinear interactions between electromagnetic fields. These generically modify the characteristics of light traversing a strong-field region. X-ray free-electron lasers constitute a particularly…
We clarify the physical origin and meaning of the two-dimensional relativistic densities of the light front formalism. The densities are shown to originate entirely from the use of light front time instead of instant form time, which…
