ALICE is one of the four big experiments of the LHC at CERN. Located 40 m underground with 30 m of overburden rock it can also operate to detect atmospheric muons produced by cosmic ray interactions with the atmosphere. The analysis of the data collected with cosmic triggers from 2010 until 2013, corresponding to around 30 days of live time, will be presented. Exploiting the specific capability o

As active data taking has moved to the LHC at CERN, more and more LHC
data have been included into fits of parton distribution functions.
An anomaly has arisen where formerly excellent agreement between
theoretical predictions and experiment in single-top-quark production
at the Tevatron is no longer quite as good. Is this indicative of a
deeper issue?

We compute the net electric current generated during a first order electroweak phase transition when fermions transit from the false to the true vacuum. This current is generated by the CP-violating fermion interaction with the Higgs during the phase transition and is quantified in terms of a CP-violating phase in the bubble wall separating the symmetric from the symmetry-broken phases.

The large transverse momentum distributions of particles observed in all LHC experiments exhibit a quasi-power-like behavior following the two-parameter Tsallis distribution with a scale factor T and nonextensivity q. Such distributions can originate from different dynamical mechanisms. However, looking at the ratios of the measured cross-sections to their phenomenological power-like fits, R = f_

The study of the heavy ion collisions is of great interest in high
energy physics due to expected phase transition from the nucleons to the
quark gluon plasma. But to have a full picture of the effect there is a
lack of experimental data in the low energy region for the
nuclei-nucleus collisions. The goal of the NICA project at JINR is to
cover the energy range from 2 GeV/n to 11 GeV/n

We study the behavior of strongly interacting matter under an external
constant magnetic field in the context of non-local chiral quark models that incorporate coupling to
the Polyakov loop. We find that at zero temperature the behavior of the quark condensates shows the
expected magnetic catalysis effect, our predictions being in good quantitative agreement with lattice QCD
results. On th

We present a study of the event by event mean transverse momentum fluctuations in high multiplicity pp and p-Pb collision systems at LHC energies in the framework of the String Percolation Model as a function of multiplicity. We found that data can be naturally described by the clustering of color sources that take place in the small collision systems in a similar manner as it does in heavy ion co

In high energy collisions, partons produced in the initial stage
undergo the multiple interaction and yield a collective motion
as a whole. Recently, several questions came up including
how small the system can be for producing the collectivity, and
how far in rapidity the collectivity extends.
PHENIX has measured the particle flow in p/d/A+A collisions
over several energies as well as over

particle pairs are presented in PbPb collisions at 5 TeV and pPb colisions at 5 and

High pT hadrons are mainly coming from the fragments of the
hard scattered partons produced at the initial stage of the
collisions. The suppression of the yield of high pT hadrons
was one of the key observables for declaring the discovery
of the QGP at RHIC.
The observation of the collective flow of the particles in p+Pb
collisions at LHC inspired the field and the experiments at

We discuss theoretical approaches to form factors in heavy-meson decays, e.g. weak decay constants, transition form factors and effective heavy-to-light meson couplings, which are hadronic expressions of nonperturbative QCD. After motivating their origin in QCD factorization and heavy quark effective theories, we retrace their evolution from earlier quark-model calculations to nonperturbative QCD

I discuss the fragmentation region at very high energies. Due to the mismatch of
the saturation momenta of the target
and projectile, there is a parametric difference between the energy density and
multiplicity density of produced particles
dependence upon saturation momenta. This parametric difference allows one to
discriminate between thermalized and
non-thermalized systems by measuring

Within the Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSEs) approach, we study the nucleon to its parity partner, N*(1535), transition form factor. This framework demands to solve the three-particle bound state equation equation, Faddeev Equation. A sophisticated diquark picture is employed in order to expedite the computation of this transition. Several intermediate diquark transitions are required to obtain the

We use the spinor helicity formalism to calculate the cross section for production of three partons of a given polarization in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) off proton and nucleus targets at small Bjorken x. The target proton or nucleus is treated as a classical color field (shock wave) from which the produced partons scatter multiple times. The resulting expressions are used to study azimuthal

As was pointed out long ago by Mueller and Tang, the BFKL hard Pomeron, at

looking for the exclusive processes where the only observed radiation are
two jets detected far apart in rapidity. The absence of any additional
emission over a large rapidity region suggests that the color-singlet
