We argue that hadron production in coherent diffraction of protons on a heavy nucleus provides a very sensitive probe of the low-x QCD dynamics. This process probes the BFKL dynamics in protons and the nonlinear gluon evolution in nuclei. We calculate the diffractive hadron production cross sections in the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) kinematic...

We apply the Color Glass Condensate formalism to photon + hadron production cross section in high energy deuteron (proton)-gold collisions at RHIC. We investigate the dependence of the production cross section on the angle between the produced hadron and photon for various rapidities and transverse momenta. It is shown that the angular correlation between the produced hadron and photon is a sen...

The hadron production in ee collisions is studied assuming that particles originate in a hadron gas at thermal and chemical equilibrium. The parameters of the hadron gas are determined with a fit to the average multiplicities of various hadron species measured at LEP and PEP-PETRA colliders. An impressive agreement is found between the predictions of this model and data for almost all particles...

Production of charmed and beauty mesons and baryons in hadron–nucleon collisions at not very high energy is considered in the framework of the Quark–Gluon String Model. We take into account the possible corrections to the model which disappear at asymptotically high energies but could be important at comparatively low energies, essentially in the case of heavy flavour production. The case of nu...
