Abstract
Hadron-hadron (h-h) collisions at high energies are investigated in the ultra-relativistic quantum molecular dynamics (UrQMD) approach. This microscopic transport model describes the phenomenology of hadronic interactions at low and intermediate energies ( 5 GeV, the excitation of colour strings and their subsequent fragmentation into hadrons dominates the multiple production of particles in the UrQMD model. The model shows a fair overall agreement with a large body of experimental h-h data over a wide range of h-h centre-of-mass energies. Hadronic reaction data with higher precision would be useful to support the use of the UrQMD model for relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

Estimate of the magnetic field strength in heavy-ion collisions

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetic field emerging in heavy-ion collisions has the magnitude of the order of $eB_y \sim 10^{-1} \cdot m_\pi^2$ for the SPS energy range and $b_y ǫ \sim m_ \pi^ 2$ for RHIC energies.

Heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in the LHC era: from proton–proton to heavy-ion collisions

Anton Andronic, +60 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the study of open heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in high-energy hadronic collisions, as tools to investigate fundamental aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics, from the proton and nucleus structure at high energy to deconfinement and the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma.

On gauge invariance and vacuum polarization

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the extraction of gauge invariants from a formally gauge invariant theory is ensured if one employs methods of solution that involve only gauge covariant quantities.

Consequences of Dirac's theory of positrons

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared Dirac's theory of the positron to those proposed by Born and showed that the field strength of large fields differs strongly from those of small fields.

New extended model of hadrons

TL;DR: In this article, a strongly interacting particle is a finite region of space to which fields are confined, and the confinement is accomplished in a Lorentz-invariant way by endowing the finite region with a constant energy per unit volume, $B$.
