A brief overview is given on the physics and future lepton-nucleon collider facilities to explore the domain of high parton densities at low Bjorken $x$, with HERA, the electron-ion collider (EIC) and with THERA - in $ep$, polarised…
Several topics of interest in soft photoproduction physics are discussed. These include jet universality issues (particle flavour composition), the subdivision into event classes, the buildup of the total photoproduction cross section and…
Measurements of the production of forward jets from transversely polarized proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=500$ GeV conducted at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are reported. Our measured jet cross section is consistent with hard…
The prospects of physics beyond the standard model in deep inelastic scattering are reviewed, emphasizing some scenarios which attained attention after the observation of an excess of events with large momentum transfer at HERA.
We observe that at the Large Hadron Collider, using forward + central detectors, it becomes possible for the first time to carry out calorimetric measurements of the transverse energy flow due to "minijets" accompanying production of two…
This short note describes the long collaborative effort between Arizona and Krak\'ow, showing some of the key strangeness signatures of quark-gluon plasma. It further presents an annotated catalog of foundational questions defining the…
Lightly triggered events may yield surprises about the nature of "soft" particle production at LHC energies. I suggest that event displays in coordinates matched to the dynamics of particle production (rapidity and transverse momentum) may…
Detailed results on top quark production at LHCb are reported from the first observation of top production in a forward region detector to the first measurement of top pair production at LHCb with 13 TeV data.
Processes of hevy quark photoproduction at HERA energies and beyond are investigated using the semihard ($k_{\bot}$ factorization) approach. The virtuality and longitudinal polarization of gluons in the photon - gluon subprocess as well as…
We discuss the phenomenology of jet physics at hadron colliders, concentrating on the internal structure of jets, which is studied using the jet shape distribution or subjet distributions.
An attempt is made to summarize the discussion at the Workshop, except for the panel discussion on the ability of the LHC detectors to accommodate forward reactions. The Workshop focused on two main topics. The first topic was forward…
Hadron colliders can provide important tests of BFKL `small-x' dynamics. We discuss two examples of such tests, the inclusive dijet jet cross section at large rapidity separation and the number of associated `mini-jets' in Higgs boson…
Small-angle detectors at the LHC give access to a broad physics programme within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). We review the capabilities of ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, LHCb, LHCf and TOTEM for forward physics studies in various sectors: soft…
Until the mystery of confinement is understood from the first principles, so called `soft physics' remains an important area of research, providing valuable information on underlying dynamics of strong interactions at long distances. In…
We suggest that top physics can be studied at the LHCb experiment, and that top production could be observed. Since LHCb covers a large pseudorapidity region in the forward direction, it has unique abilities to probe new physics in the top…
The perturbative QCD predictions concerning deep inelastic scattering at low $x$ are summarized. The theoretical framework based on the leading log $1/x$ resummation and $k_t$ factorization theorem is described. The role of studying final…
A measurement is presented for the energy flow of minimum bias events in the forward region (3.15 <|\eta |< 4.9, where \eta is the pseudorapidity) of the CMS detector at the LHC for center-of-mass energies sqrt(s) = 0.9 TeV, 2.36 TeV and 7…
The past year has seen a number of important developments in hard photoproduction physics at the HERA Collider. These are surveyed.
We predict the Z transverse momentum distribution from proton-proton and nuclear collisions at the LHC. After demonstrating that higher-twist nuclear effects are very small, we propose $Z^0$ production as a precision test for leading-twist…
We calculate the rate of producing deep inelastic events containing an energetic isolated forward photon at HERA. We quantify the enhancement arising from the leading $\log 1/x$ gluon emissions with a view to using such events to identify…
