In this article, we study the interactions of stable, hadronizing new states, arising in certain extensions of the Standard Model. A simple model, originally intended for stable gluino hadrons, is developed to describe the nuclear…
We propose a new parton model and demonstrate that the model describes the relevant experimental data at high energies. The model is based on Pomeron calculus in 1+1 space-time dimensions, as suggested in Ref. [18] and on simple assumptions…
Lightly triggered events may yield surprises about the nature of "soft" particle production at LHC energies. I suggest that event displays in coordinates matched to the dynamics of particle production (rapidity and transverse momentum) may…

Double parton scattering in proton-proton collisions includes kinematic regions in which two partons inside a proton originate from the perturbative splitting of a single parton. This leads to a double counting problem between single and…
I give an overview of the ability of a high energy $\mu^+\mu^-$ collider to discover new particles and interactions. I start with heavy fermions which will be the most straightforward to produce and observe. I then discuss single leptoquark…
A sizable rate of events, with several pairs of heavy-quarks produced contemporarily by multiple parton interactions, may be expected at very high energies as a consequence of the large parton luminosities. The production rates are enhanced…
Beauty and charm quarks are ideal probes of pertubative Quantum Chromodymanics in proton-proton collisions, owing to their large masses. In this paper the role of multi-parton interactions in the production of doubly-heavy hadrons is…
Low-energy strong interactions are a major source of background at hadron colliders, and methods of subtracting the associated energy flow are well established in the field. Traditional approaches treat the contamination as diffuse, and…
