We demonstrate that a trigger on hard dijet production at small rapidities allows to establish a quantitative distinction between central and peripheral collisions in pbar-p and p-p collisions at Tevatron and LHC energies. Such a trigger…
We discuss how the main features of high-energy `soft' and `semihard' pp collisions may be described in terms of parton cascades and multi-Pomeron exchange. The interaction between Pomerons produces an effective infrared cutoff, k_sat, by…
The study of top-quark properties will be a central aspect of the physics programme of any future lepton collider. In this article, we investigate the production of top-quark pairs in the semi-leptonic decay channel in $\rm e^+e^-$…
The region of the small and large momentum transfer is examined from a view point of the contribution of the different parts of the scattering amplitude, soft and hard pomeron, and odderon contribution. The new model taking into account the…
The Two-Gluon Model of the Pomeron predicts strongly size-dependent high-energy hadron cross sections. Yet experimental cross sections for radially excited mesons appear surprisingly close in value. The strong coupling of these mesons in…
We review selected results from a recent in-depth study of jet shapes and jet cross sections in ultra-relativistic reactions with heavy nuclei at the LHC arXiv:0810.2807 [hep-ph]. We demonstrate that at the highest collider energies these…
The aim of this study is to set a baseline for the jet quenching measurements of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) formed in the large system size Nucleus-Nucleus (A-A) at top central collisions, via studying simulated small system size,…
Minijet production in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is discussed by taking semi-hard parton rescatterings explicitly into account. At both RHIC and LHC energies we find sizable effects on global characteristics of the nuclear…
At the energies of present and future electron accelerators designed to study the structure of hadrons, there is a regime where hard pion electroproduction proceeds by a perturbatively calculable process in QCD. The process is not the…
We report a new measurement of the pseudorapidity (eta) and transverse- energy (Et) dependence of the inclusive jet production cross section in pbar p collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV using 95 pb**-1 of data collected with the D0 detector at…
We propose a QCD motivated theoretical approach to high energy soft interactions, which successfully describes the experimental data on total, elastic and diffraction cross sections. We predict that the survival probability for the…
The relationship between jet production in the central region and the underlying-event activity in a pseudorapidity-separated region is studied in 4.0 pb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s} = 2.76$ TeV $pp$ collision data recorded with the ATLAS detector…
According to the dynamical quasiparticle model (DQPM) - matched to reproduce lattice QCD results in thermodynamic limit, - the constituents of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma (sQGP) are massive and off-shell quasi-particles…
Selected recent quantum chromodynamics (QCD) measurements are reviewed for Fermilab Run II Tevatron proton-antiproton collisions studied by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) and DZero Collaborations at a centre-of-mass energy of…
Previous studies have indicated that the near-side peak of high-pT triggered di-hadron correlations can be decomposed into two parts, a jet-like correlation and the ridge. We present data from Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at sqrt(sNN)=62 and…
We considered the three jet production processes in the region of the incident lepton, photon, quark or gluon fragmentation. The fourth jet is created by the recoil proton. The kinematics of jet production is discussed in jets production in…
Quantum Chromodynamics constitutes the quantum field theory of the strong interaction. Despite the success of this theory in the description of several hadronic processes, the elastic scattering is still a theoretical challenge. This…
QGP, a strongly coupled liquid when viewed at length scales of ${\cal O}(1/T)$, must reveal quark- and gluon-like quasi-particles when probed with sufficiently high momentum transfer, since QCD is asymptotically free. High energy jet…
The past several years have witnessed important developments in the QCD theory of jet production and jet substructure in hadronic collisions. In the framework of soft-collinear effective theory, semi-inclusive jet functions and…
We measure the ratio of cross sections, $\sigma(p\bar{p}\rightarrow Z+2~b~\text{jets})$/$\sigma(p\bar{p}\rightarrow Z+\text{2 jets})$, for associated production of a $Z$ boson with at least two jets with transverse momentum $p_T^{\rm jet} >…
