We demonstrate that the main part of the observed nuclear suppression of dilepton and charmonium production, especially the x-dependence of the suppression, can be explained by the absorption of fast initial partons. We assume the…
We compare results of $2 \to 1$ $k_t$-factorization approach with Kwieci\'nski unintegrated parton distributions and the standard collinear factorization approach at RHIC and slightly smaller energies. Our approach contains only one free…

It has been argued recently that the so-called nuclear modification factor ($R_{AA}$) is an observable useful for identifying the quark-gluon plasma. We discuss the effect of Fermi motion in nuclei on $R_{AA}$ at CERN SPS and BNL RHIC…
It is shown that the gluons produced with small transverse momenta $k_\perp$ inside a jet ($k_\perp <k_\perp^{cut}$, $k_\perp^{cut} \to 0$) are independently emitted from the primary parton, as QCD coherence suppresses their showering.…
I discuss the systematic modifications to the perturbative QCD factorization approach in high energy l+A, p+A and A+A reactions. These include transverse momentum diffusion manifest in the Cronin effect and a small increase in the dijet…

We calculate the cross section of a single inclusive gluon production in deep inelastic scattering at very high energies in the saturation regime, where the parton densities inside hadrons and nuclei are large and the evolution of structure…
Processes of heavy quark photoproduction at HERA energies are considered using the semihard (k_T factorization) QCD approach with emphasis of the BFKL dynamics of gluon distributions. We investigate the dependences of the total cross…

Explicit applications of factorization theorems for processes at hadron colliders near the hadronic endpoint have largely focused on simple final states with either no jets (e.g., Drell-Yan) or one inclusive jet (e.g., deep inelastic…
