In order to understand strangeness production mechanisms, one can study the correlations of hadrons with hidden strangeness (e.g. the $\phi$ meson) and open strangeness ($\mathrm{K}^{0}_{\mathrm{S}}$, $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$) in hard…
The $f_0$(1500) meson resonance is one of several contenders to have significant mixing with the lightest glueball. This resonance is well established from several previous experiments. Here we present the first photoproduction data for the…
We present the photoproduction of an intermediate mass Higgs (IMH) boson associated with a $W$ boson at the future electron-proton colliders using bremsstrahlung photon beam or laser backscattered photon beam. With bremsstrahlung photon…
In backward photoproduction of mesons, $\gamma p\rightarrow M p$, the target proton takes most of the photon momentum, while the produced meson recoils in the direction from which the photon came. Thus the Mandelstam $u$ is small, while the…
As an important sequential work of the S-wave $B_c^{(*)}$ ($^1S_0(^3S_1)$) meson production at the large hadron electron collider (LHeC), we investigate the production of the P-wave excited $B_c^{**}$ states ($^1P_1$ and $^3P_J$ with…

We consider the reactions gamma p --> M B, with M B being either K+ Lambda, K+ Sigma0, or Pi n, within a diquark model which is based on perturbative QCD. The model parameters and the quark-diquark distribution amplitudes of the baryons are…
We propose a simple meson-exchange model of the photoproduction of $\rho$- and $\omega$-mesons off protons near threshold ($E_\gamma$ less than 2 GeV). This model provides a good description of the available data and implies a large…
We study photoproduction of rho mesons in a model of hidden local symmetry. The rho meson is introduced as a hidden gauge boson and a phenomenological rho meson-nucleon Lagrangian is constructed respecting chiral symmetry. It is shown that…
Measurements of strangeness production in jets help illuminate the QCD mechanisms in fragmentation. Furthermore, they provide a crucial baseline for heavy-ion studies where modifications in jet chemistry have recently been predicted. We…
