Using a gauged flavor SU(3)-invariant hadronic Lagrangian, we calculate the cross sections for the strangeness-exchange reactions YY to N\Xi (Y=\Lambda, \Sigma) in the Born approximation. These cross sections are then used in the…
The microscopic origin of the strangeness enhancements observed in PbPb collisions at the SPS is studied by testing the effects of three mechanisms. First, the junction processes found in the HIJING/BBbar event generator are reviewed…
We compare the recent COSY data on the total $pp{\to}p\Lambda{K^+}$ and $pp{\to}p\Sigma^0{K^+}$ cross sections with the predictions from two boson exchange models that either are based solely on $\pi$ and $K$ exchange or include $\pi$,…
We estimate the cross sections for the inclusive production of $\Theta^+$ and $\Lambda(1520)$ in $pp$ collisions at high energy using the $K$ exchange diagrams. We find that inclusive $\Theta^+$ production should be at the level of 1 $\mu$b…
It is shown that most of the available data on the $pp\to pp\eta$ reaction, including the invariant mass distributions in the $pp\to pp\eta$ reaction recently measured at COSY, can be understood in terms of the partial-wave amplitudes…
We present results for the $p p \to p p \omega$ reaction studied by considering two different scenarios: with and without the inclusion of nucleon resonance excitations. The recently measured angular distribution by the COSY-TOF…
Strangeness production is calculated in a pQCD-based model (including nuclear effects) in the high transverse momentum sector, where pQCD is expected to work well. We investigate pion, kaon, proton and lambda production in pp and heavy-ion…
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…
