It has been theorized that if heavy nuclei (e.g. Au, Pb) are collided at sufficiently high energies, we might be to recreate the conditions that existed in the universe a few microseconds after the Big Bang. The kinetic energy of the…
I present a brief discussion of the different approaches to the study initial state effects in heavy ion collisions in view of the recent results from Pb+Pb and p+p collisions at the LHC.
The possibility to relate multiplicity distributions and their moments, as measured in the hadronic final state in e(+)e(-) annihilation, to features of the initial partonic state is analyzed from a theoretical and phenomenological point of…
Three-dimensional (3D) electronic band structure is fundamental for understanding a vast diversity of physical phenomena in solid-state systems, including topological phases, interlayer interactions in van der Waals materials,…
The present status of high energy cosmic ray interaction models is discussed, concentrating on recent model updates inspired by the data from Run 1 of the LHC. A special attention is devoted to the remaining differences in the model…
Light, beyond-the-standard-model particles $X$ in the 1-100 MeV mass range can be produced in nuclear and hadronic reactions but would have to decay electromagnetically. We show that simple and well-understood low-energy hadronic processes…
Recent results on nucleon resonance studies in $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}p$ electro- production off protons with the CLAS detector are presented. The analysis of CLAS data allowed us to determine all essential contributing mechanisms, providing a…
A short review of our recent work on amplitude parametrizations of three-body hadronic weak $B$ and $D$ decays is presented. The final states are here composed of three light mesons, namely the various charge $\pi\pi\pi$, $K\pi\pi$ and…
In this talk, we review the most recent progress in the searching for the exotic hadrons, including hybrids, multi-quark states, molecules and so on. We only focus on the studies with a charmonium and one or more light mesons in the final…
Starting from 2003, the discovery of a large amount of the so-called exotic hadronic states, i.e., the $XYZ$ states, the pentaquark states as well as the tetraquark states, have not only revived studies of hadron spectroscopy, but also…
We explore the potential for the discovery of the triple-Higgs signal in the $2b2l^{\pm}4j+E\!\!\!/$ decay channel at a $100$ TeV hadron collider. We consider both the Standard Model and generic new-physics contributions, described by an…
The determination of the quantum properties of a single mode radiation field by heterodyne or double homodyne detection is studied. The realistic case of not fully efficient photodetectors is considered. It is shown that a large amount of…
The effect of altered hadron masses is studied for its effect with regard to final-state hadronic observables. It is shown that the final phase space densities of pions and kaons, which can be inferred experimentally, are sensitive to…
The complexity of collider data analyses has dramatically increased from early colliders to the CERN LHC. Reconstruction of the collision products in the particle detectors has reached a point that requires dedicated publications…
We make an attempt to discuss in detail the effects originating from the final state interaction in the processes involving production of unstable elementary particles and their subsequent decay. Two complementary scenarios are considered:…
The HERA experiments H1 and ZEUS have recently presented a number of interesting results from studies of the hadronic final state produced in $ep$ collisions. These studies have focussed on deep inelastic scattering events and on the…
The discovery of hadronic states beyond the conventional two-quark meson and three-quark baryon picture in the last two decades is one of the most amazing accomplishments in fundamental physics research. We review the experimental progress…
In the past few years a wealth of high quality data has made possible to test current theoretical ideas about the properties of hadrons subject to extreme conditions of density and temperature. The relativistic heavy-ion program carried out…
If pairs of new colored particles are produced at the Large Hadron Collider, determining their quantum numbers, and even discovering them, can be non-trivial. We suggest that valuable information can be obtained by measuring the resonant…
This dissertation examines the phenomenology of statistical hadronization at ultrarelativistic energies. We start with an overview of current experimental and theoretical issues in Relativistic heavy ion physics. We then introduce…
