This is a quick survey of theoretical and experimental efforts to understand and identify the Odderon.
The odderon singularity is studied in perturbative QCD in the framework of the Bartels-Kwieci\'nski-Praszalowicz (BKP) equation. Arguments for the odderon intercept being exactly equal to unity are given. Besides, a variational method based…
The energy range and quality of strong-interaction data from recent years demand the study of higher orders in perturbative QCD, and of nonperturbative effects. I discuss a selection of recent progress in the theory of QCD at high energy,…
This thesis comprises two investigations, both connected with the attempt to understand Regge theory in the framework of QCD. The first is about how the odderon, a Reggeon carrying no charge which is odd under charge conjugation, couples to…
We present current and ongoing research aimed at identifying Pomeron effects at the LHC in both the weak and strongly coupled regimes of QCD.
High-order perturbative corrections to positronium decays and hyperfine splitting are briefly reviewed. Theoretical predictions are compared to the most recent experimental data. Perspectives of future calculations are discussed.
I review some of the recent progress in QCD at high temperature and density, with a focus on the nature of the high-temperature transition; cold and dense matter; and hadron properties and transport coefficients at high temperature.
Opening talk presented at the Adriatico Research Conference -- Trends in Collider Spin Physics and at the RIKEN Symposium -- Spin Structure of the Nucleon. We present an overview of the opportunities to explore QCD at a very high energy…
We analyse the momentum space triple Pomeron vertex in perturbative QCD. In addition to the standard form of this vertex which is used in the context of total cross-sections at high energies and in the QCD reggeon field theory, there exists…
These lectures introduce some of the basic methods of perturbative QCD and their applications to phenomenology at high energy. Emphasis is given to techniques that are used to study QCD and related field theories to all orders in…
These proceedings provide a brief summary of the theoretical topics that were covered at Moriond QCD 2009, including non-perturbative QCD, perturbative QCD at colliders, a small component of physics beyond the standard model and heavy-ion…
This talk examines recent progress in collider QCD and some facets of the interplay between these developments and searches for new particles and phenomena at the Tevatron and LHC.
We review the current status of perturbative QCD calculation of hadronic electromagnetic form factors.
The theoretical status of perturbative QED and QCD corrections to deep inelastic scattering is reviewed.
In these proceedings, I shall review the basic concepts of perturbative QCD in its high-energy limit, emphasising the approach to the unitarity limit, usually referred to as {\em saturation}. I shall explain the basic framework showing the…
On March 19-21, 1998, a workshop devoted to questions of the pomeron and the odderon in high energy scattering was held in Heidelberg. This note gives a personal account of some of the issues discussed at this workshop. Of course,…
We present and discuss a new bound state solution of the three gluon system in perturbative QCD. It carries the quantum numbers of the odderon, has intercept at one and couples to the impact factor $\gamma^* \to \eta_c$.
Results presented in perturbative QCD are reviewed. The topics discussed include: - struction functions, - heavy flavour production, - direct photon production, - inclusive production at LHC/SSC, - small $x$ physics, - QCD jets and -…
This is an introduction to the use of QCD perturbation theory, emphasizing generic features of the theory that enable one to separate short-time and long-time effects. I also cover some important classes of applications: electron-positron…
We review some outstanding puzzles and experimental anomalies in hadron physics that appear to challenge conventional wisdom and, in some cases, the foundations of QCD. We also discuss possible solutions and propose new tests and…
