In hadron interactions at the LHC energies, the reflective scattering mode starts to play a role which is expected to be even a more significant beyond the energies of the LHC. This new but still arguable phenomenon implies a peripheral…
Centrality, as a geometrical property of the collision, is crucial for the physical interpretation of nucleus-nucleus and proton-nucleus experimental data. However, it cannot be directly accessed in event-by-event data analysis. Common…
Particle production in small systems (pp and p-Pb collisions) has unveiled unexpected collective-like behavior. In this work an overview of the current investigation on the similarities between small systems and heavy-ion collisions is…
A significant fraction of pp collisions at the LHC will involve (quasi-real) photon interactions occurring at energies well beyond the electroweak energy scale. Hence, the LHC can to some extend be considered as a high-energy photon-photon…
In these proceedings, I report on a selection of recent LHC results in small systems from ALICE, ATLAS and CMS experiments. Due to the fact that the investigation of QCD in small systems at high multiplicity is becoming an increasingly…
The concept of centrality in high-energy nuclear collisions has recently become a subject of an active debate. In particular, the experimental methods to determine the centrality that have given reasonable results for many observables in…
The observation of long-range collective correlations for particles emitted in high-multiplicity pp and pPb collisions has opened up new opportunities of investigating novel high-density QCD phenomena in small colliding systems. We review…
We investigate the impact of very strong small x gluon fields in colliding nucleons at LHC energies on the interaction of valence quarks. We find that in the range of small impact parameters, which contribute significantly to the production…
A Monte Carlo model, initially developed for soft pp and AA collisions at high energy, is applied for proton-lead interaction at the LHC energy. Elementary collisions are implemented at the partonic level and do not involve the usual…
Proton-Proton ($pp$) collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are simulated in order to study events with a high local density of charged particles produced in narrow pseudorapidty windows of $\Delta\eta$ = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5. The $pp$…
Recent highlights from the anisotropic flow and the azimuthal correlation measurements in a heavy-ion collisions at the LHC are presented. Various flow harmonics measured for the charged and identified particles versus transverse momentum,…
Phenomena related to the non-perturbative aspects of strong interactions at the LHC are discussed with emphasis on elastic and inelastic soft and hard diffraction processes. Predictions for the global characteristics and angular…
We discuss various aspects of the multiparticle production processes at the LHC energy range with emphasis on the collective effects associated with appearance of the new scattering mode, which corresponds to the reflective scattering and…
In recent years certain experimental results from small collision systems (e.g. p-p, d-Au, p-Pb) at the RHIC and LHC have been reinterpreted as evidence for formation therein of a dense flowing medium (QGP) despite small collision volumes.…
We propose a new parametrization of the distribution of the initial eccentricity in a nucleus-nucleus collision at a fixed centrality, which we name the Elliptic Power distribution. It is a two-parameter distribution, where one of the…
Event-by-event fluctuations of the charged particle multiplicity are studied for a wide range of centralities for Au$-$Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV, Pb$-$Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV and 5.02 TeV using the…
The LHC data have unveiled unexpected features in proton-proton (pp) collisions, namely, collective-like behavior and strangeness enhancement. Originally, these new effects were discovered only in high-multiplicity pp collisions. However,…
Contact interactions offer a general framework for describing a new interaction with a scale above the energy scale probed. These interactions can occur if the Standard Model particles are composite or if new heavy particles are exchanged.…
We explore the possibility of observing elliptic flow in low multiplicity events in central pp collisions at LHC energy, $\sqrt{s}$=14 TeV. It is assumed that the initial interactions produces a number of hot spots. Hydrodynamical evolution…
The centrality and system size dependence of multiplicity fluctuations of charged particles produced in nuclear collisions at $158 A$ GeV was studied by the NA49 collaboration. Centrality selected Pb+Pb collisions, semi-central C+C and…
