This proceedings contribution gives a brief introduction to the theoretical description of double parton scattering and discusses several open problems.
Despite a wealth of experimental data for high p_T processes in heavy-ion collisions, discriminating between different models of hard parton-medium interactions has been difficult. One important reason is that the pQCD parton spectrum at…
I present an overview of some current topics in the measurement of Parton Distribution Functions.
We review the quark coalescence model for hadronization in relativistic heavy ion collisions and show how it can explain the observed large baryon to meson ratio at intermediate transverse momentum and scaling of the elliptic flows of…
We present a new cascade-type microscopic simulation of Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions at RHIC energies. The basic elements are partons (quarks and gluons) moving in 8N-dimensional phase space according to Poincar\'e-covariant dynamics. The…
I review recent progress in the determination of the parton structure of the nucleon, in particular from deep-inelastic structure functions. I explain how the needs of current and future precision phenomenology, specifically at the LHC,…

Double parton scattering events are directly sensitive to the correlations between two partons inside a proton and can answer fundamental questions on the connections between the proton constituents. In this chapter, the different types of…
After a brief recapitulation of the general interest of parton densities, we discuss multiple hard interactions and multiparton distributions. We report on recent theoretical progress in their QCD description, on outstanding conceptual…
Revised formulas for the inclusive cross section of a triple parton scattering process in a hadron collision are suggested basing on the modified collinear three-parton distributions. The possible phenomenological issues are discussed.
The relation between parton and hadron multiplicity distributions is discussed. To obtain parton multiplicity distribution we propose decomposition of the multiplicity distributions of final state hadrons. Such procedure offers hope for…
We review recent theoretical developments in understanding the intermittency phenomenon observed in high-energy leptonic, hadronic and nuclear collisions. In particular, we discuss self-similar cascading and QCD parton showers, models with…
We present some aspects of the so-called additive coalescence, with a focus on its connections with random trees, Brownian excursion, certain bridges with exchangeable increments, L\'evy processes, and sticky particle systems.
The experimental highlights from PHENIX are summarized from the point of view of probing the properties of dense partonic matter produced at RHIC
Within a covariant parton cascade, we discuss the impact of both finite shear viscosity $\eta$ and freeze-out dynamics on the elliptic flow generated at RHIC. We find that the enhancement of $\eta/s$ in the cross-over region of the QGP…
I give a brief review of the parton model.
We revisit the global QCD analysis of parton-to-kaon fragmentation functions at next-to-leading order accuracy using the latest experimental information on single-inclusive kaon production in electron-positron annihilation, lepton-nucleon…
We first consider the origin of colour deconfinement, comparing in particular spontaneous symmetry breaking and percolation. Next we specify the onset of deconfinement in nuclear collisions through parton percolation, and with parameters…
We have investigated the build up of anisotropic flows within a parton cascade approach at fixed shear viscosity to entropy density \eta/s to study the generation of collective flows in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. We present a…
The shear viscosity is calculated by means of the perturbative kinetic partonic cascade BAMPS with CGC initial conditons for various saturation momentum scale Q_s. eta/s ~ 0.15 stays approximately constant when going from RHIC to LHC.
