Within a combined approach we investigate the main features of the production of hyper-fragments in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The formation of hyperons is modelled within the UrQMD and HSD transport codes. To describe the hyperon…
Angular correlations of high-pT hadrons can serve as a probe of interactions of partons with the dense medium produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions but other sources of such correlations exist which can be non-negligible SPS…
In high multiplicity nucleus-nucleus collisions baryon-antibaryon annihilation and regeneration occur during the final hadronic expansion phase, thus distorting the initial equilibrium multiplicity ratios. We quantify the modifications…
We report on the observed differences in production rates of strange and multi-strange baryons in Au+Au collisions at sqrts = 200 GeV compared to pp interactions at the same energy. The strange baryon yields in Au+Au collisions, then scaled…
One-loop corrections at the two-nucleon level to Pion Double Charge exchange (DCX) scattering off a nuclear target at threshold, are calculated within the framework of Heavy Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory (HBChPT). An estimate for the…
Doubly heavy baryons $\left(QQq\right)$ and singly heavy antimesons $\left(\bar{Q}q\right)$ are related by the heavy quark-diquark (HQDQ) symmetry because in the $m_Q \to \infty$ limit, the light degrees of freedom in both the hadrons are…
Hyperon nonleptonic decays that change strangeness by two units, such as $\Xi\to N\pi$ and $\Omega^-\to nK^-,\Lambda\pi^-,\Sigma^{(*)}\pi$, are highly suppressed in the standard model. Only a few of them have been searched for to date,…
It has been observed recently that while continuum dilepton production and open charm production in high-energy $pA$ collisions can be described in terms of the superposition of $pp$ collisions, dilepton yields in S+U collisions are in…
We phenomenologically study whether partonic collisions responsible for the growth of hadron-hadron cross sections at high energy can be ascribed to instanton-induced processes. Although non-perturbative in nature, these interactions occur…
Dilepton and photon production in heavy-ion collisions at SPS energies is studied in the relativistic transport model that incorporates self-consistently the change of hadron masses in dense matter. It is found that the dilepton spectra in…
Double-parton scattering is investigated using events with a Z boson and jets. The Z boson is reconstructed using only the dimuon channel. The measurements are performed with proton-proton collision data recorded by the CMS experiment at…
The evolution of (non-strange) antibaryon abundances in the hadronic phase of central heavy-ion collisions is studied within a thermal equilibrium framework, based on the well-established picture of subsequent chemical and thermal…
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…
In the U(1)_N extension of the supersymmetric standard model with E_6 particle content, the heavy singlet superfield N may decay into a quark and a diquark as well as an antiquark and an antidiquark, thus creating a baryon asymmetry of the…
We investigate the onset of hyperons in baryonic (diquark) matter in two-color QCD (QC$_2$D) by introducing heavy quark doublets that emulate strange quarks. An even number of flavors is required to avoid the sign problem in lattice Monte…
The strange baryon production in Bi+Bi collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=9.0$\,GeV is studied using the PHSD transport model. Hyperon and anti-hyperon yields, transverse momentum spectra, and rapidity spectra are calculated, their centrality…
The system size and centrality dependence of multiplicity fluctuations in nuclear collisions at $158A$ GeV as well as the energy dependence for the most central $Pb+Pb$ collisions were studied by the NA49 experiment at CERN SPS. A strong…
The increase of strange-particle yields relative to pions versus charged-particle multiplicity in proton-proton (pp) collisions at the LHC is usually described by microscopic or hydrodynamical models as a result of the increasing density of…
Enhancement, due to constructive interference through the many possible reaction channels, occurs in two-neutron transfer reactions from a bound system $A$ to a weakly-bound system ($A$+2), whenever the intermediate system is unbound and…
A new variant of the effective pomeron exchange model is proposed for the description of the correlation, observed in $pp$ and $p\bar{p}$ collisions at center-of-mass energy from SPS to LHC, between mean transverse momentum and charged…
