Particle production in high energy hadronic/nuclear collisions in the Bjorken limit Q 2 , s → ∞ can be described in the collinear factorization framework of perturbative Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD). On the other hand in the Regge limit, at fixed and not too high Q 2 with s → ∞ , a k ⊥ factorization approach (or a generalization of it) is the appropriate framework. A new effective action approach to QCD in the Regge limit, known as the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) formalism, has been developed which allows one to investigate particle production in high energy collisions in the kinematics where collinear factorization breaks down. Here we give a brief overview of particle production in CGC framework and the evolution equation which governs energy dependence of the observables in this formalism. We show that the new evolution equation reduces to previously known evolution equations in the appropriate limits.

This paper presents a fractality analysis of the compound multiplicity (pions + target protons) distribution in 12C–AgBr interactions at 4.5A GeV in terms of moments proposed by Takagi (Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 32 (1994)) for both emission-angle (θ) and azimuthal-angle (ϕ) space. The generalized dimensions Dq, q = 1 to 5, have been calculated and compared to other studies. The analysis reveals the multifractal nature of particle production as a common feature of emission of different patterns in high-energy nuclear collisions. PACS Nos.: 25.75–q, 24.60 Ky

This is a review of the parton cascade model (PCM) which provides a QCD-based description of nucleus-nucleus reactions at very high energy. The PCM describes the collision dynamics within the early and dense phase of the reaction in terms of the relativistic, probabilistic transport of perturbative excitations (partons) of the QCD vacuum, combined with the renormalization group flow of the parton virtuality. The current state of numerical implementations of the model, as well as its predictions for nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC are discussed.

In the light of the combinational approach that has been recently utilized to accommodate data from high energy nuclear collisions, we attempt here to interpret the nature of the latest data obtained by E706 collaboration of FERMILAB on neutral mesons produced in both proton–proton (PP) and proton–beryllium (P Be ) collisions. The study demonstrates that the approach can be useful for analyzing data on particle production in collisions involving both heavy and relatively much light nuclei such as beryllium.
