Estimation of the back-to-back pi-pi correlations arising due to evolution of the pionic field in the course of pion production process is given for central heavy nucleus collisions at moderate energies.
We present a relativistic dynamical model of pion photoproduction on the nucleon in the resonance region. It offers several advances over the existing approaches. The model is obtained by extending our $\pi N$-scattering description to the…
Neutrino-induced productions (neutrinoproduction) of photons and pions from nucleons and nuclei are important for the interpretation of neutrino-oscillation experiments, as they are potential backgrounds in the MiniBooNE experiment [A. A.…
The reaction $pp \to pp2\gamma$, proposed earlier to probe for the NN--decoupled dibaryon resonances, has been studied by the DIB$2\gamma$ Collaboration (JINR) and their preliminary data seem to give evidence for the resonance effect at…
Two-photon production in pp scattering is proposed as a means of studying virtual-pion emission. Such a process is complementary to real-pion emission in pp scattering. The virtual-pion signal is embedded in a background of double-photon…
We present a study of inclusive direct-photon and neutral pion production in hadronic interactions that focuses on a comparison of the ratio of photon and pion yields with expectations from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD (NLO pQCD).
A dynamical coupled-channel model is presented for investigating the nucleon resonances in the meson production reactions induced by pions and photons. The model is based on an energy-independent Hamiltonian which is derived from a set of…
We have developed a model for the N N --> N N pi pi reaction and evaluated cross sections for the different charged channels. The low energy part of those channels where the pions can be in an isospin zero state is dominated by N*…
Some of the recent progress in the physics of pion production induced by neutrinos on nucleons and nuclei is reviewed from a theoretical perspective. The importance of Watson's theorem to reconcile ANL and BNL data with the off-diagonal…

We have studied the gamma d ---> Delta++ Delta- reaction which requires the collaboration of the two nucleons in deuteron. By means of a model previously developed for the gamma p ----> p pi+ pi- reaction, the two body exchange currents…
The radiative pion capture process in nuclei is approached by using a continuum shell-model description of the nucleus, together with a phenomenological treatment of the two particle-two hole effects. It is found that these effects play an…
Pion production in proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions outside the kinematical boundary of proton-nucleon (p+N) reactions, the so-called cumulative effect, is studied. Restrictions from energy-momentum conservation on the energy of pions…
In this work, we discuss the possibility of studying nucleon resonances in the $K^+N$ interactions. Based on our model calculations, it is found that the hyperon exchange plays an important role for the excitation of nucleon resonances in…
We have extended a model for the $\gamma N\to \pi\pi N$ reaction to virtual photons and selected the diagrams which have a $\Delta$ in the final state. The agreement found with the $\gamma_v p\to\Delta^0\pi^+$ and $\gamma_v…
This work represents an extension of the single pion production model proposed by D. Rein. The model consists of resonant pion production and nonresonant background contributions coming from three Born diagrams in the helicity basis. The…
Photoproduction of neutral and charged pions off nucleons and deuterium has been precisely calculated in baryon chiral perturbation theory. I review the predictions with the accurate data that have become available over the last few years.…

We calculate the production of real photons in relativistic nuclear collisions at RHIC, consistently with the quenching of fast partons. We go beyond one-body observables, and evaluate photon-triggered fragmentation functions, in the…
I review the interesting tale of the electric dipole amplitude in neutral pion photoproduction and the resulting consequences. I also discuss why there is new life related to P--wave multipoles. Electroproduction is briefly touched upon.
