A study of gamma-families generated in nucleon-nucleus (NA) and pion-nucleus (pi A) interactions
The separation of the gamma families generated in nucleon-nuclear and pion-nuclear (PI-A) interactions is realized from the analysis of simulated gamma families. Some characteristics of NA and PI families and the influence of the process of inelastic charge-exchange of charged pions neutral ones type of PI + or - A yields are studied
A comparative analysis of gamma and hadron families at the superhigh energies recorded in experiment Pamir
A comparative analysis of hadron and gamma families which have undergone the decascading procedure is made. Results are compared with different models of interactions. In hadron families with energies Summary E sub H sup gamma 20 TeV as well as in gamma families with energies Summary E sub gamma 70 TeV, increasing azimuthal anisotropy is observed
Light Baryon Resonances: Restrictions and Perspectives
The problem of nucleon resonances N' with masses below the Delta is
considered. We derive bounds for the properties of such states. Some of these
are new, while others improve upon existing limits. We discuss the nature of N'
states, and their unitary partners, assuming their existence can be verified.Comment: 11 pages, 11 figur
Low energy neutrino scattering measurements at future Spallation Source facilities
In the future several Spallation Source facilities will be available
worldwide. Spallation Sources produce large amount of neutrinos from
decay-at-rest muons and thus can be well adapted to accommodate
state-of-the-art neutrino experiments. In this paper low energy neutrino
scattering experiments that can be performed at such facilities are reviewed.
Estimation of expected event rates are given for several nuclei, electrons and
protons at a detector located close to the source. A neutrino program at
Spallation Sources comprises neutrino-nucleus cross section measurements
relevant for neutrino and core-collapse supernova physics, electroweak tests
and lepton-flavor violation searches.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 5 table
Present status of the nonstrange and other flavor partners of the exotic Theta+ baryon
Given the existing empirical information about the exotic Theta+ baryon, we
analyze possible properties of its SU(3)F-partners, paying special attention to
the nonstrange member of the antidecuplet N*. The modified piN partial-wave
analysis presents two candidate masses, 1680 MeV and 1730 MeV. In both cases,
the N* should be rather narrow and highly inelastic. Our results suggest
several directions for experimental studies that may clarify properties of the
antidecuplet baryons, and structure of their mixing with other baryons. Recent
experimental evidence from the GRAAL and STAR Collaborations could be
interpreted as observations of a candidate for the Theta+ nonstrange partner.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, talk given at the Topical Group on Hadron Physics

Resonances, and mechanisms of Theta-production
After explaining necessity of exotic hadrons, we discuss mechanisms which
could determine production of the exotic Theta-baryon. A possible important
role of resonances (producing the Theta in real or virtual decays) is
emphasized for various processes. Several experimental directions for studies
of such resonances, and the Theta itself, are suggested. We briefly discuss
also recent negative results on the Theta-baryon.Comment: 6 page
Weak radiative hyperon decays, Hara's theorem and the diquark
Weak radiative hyperon decays are discussed in the diquark-level approach. It
is pointed out that in the general diquark formalism one may reproduce the
experimentally suggested pattern of asymmetries, while maintaining Hara's
theorem in the SU(3) limit. At present, however, no detailed quark-based model
of parity-violating diquark-photon coupling exists that would have the
necessary properties.Comment: 10 pages, LaTe
Monte Carlo simulation for jet fragmentation in SUSY-QCD
We present results from a new Monte Carlo simulation for jet fragmentation in
QCD and SUSY QCD for large primary energies up to GeV. In
the case of SUSY QCD the simulation takes into account not only gluons and
quarks as cascading particles, but also their supersymmetric partners. A new
model-independent hadronization scheme is developed, in which the hadronization
functions are found from LEP data. An interesting feature of SUSY QCD is the
prediction of a sizeable flux of the lightest supersymmetric particles (LSPs),
if R-parity is conserved. About 10% of the jet energy is transferred to LSPs
which, owing to their harder spectra, constitute an important part of the
spectra for large . Spectra of protons and of secondary particles,
photons and neutrinos, are also calculated. These results have implications for
the decay of superheavy particles with masses up to the GUT scale, which have
been suggested as a source of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays.Comment: latex, 25 pages with 17 eps figure
Towards a common origin of the elliptic flow, ridge and alignment
It is claimed that elliptic flow, ridge and alignment are effects of
azimuthal asymmetry, which have a common origin evolving with primary energy
and stemming from the general structure of field-theoretical matrix elements.
It interrelates a new ridge-phenomenon, recently found at the LHC and RHIC,
with known coplanarity feature observed in collider jet physics as well as in
cosmic ray studies.Comment: 4 pages, few typos fixed, reference added, version published in JETP

Comment on "Hara's theorem in the constituent quark model"
It is pointed out that current conservation alone does not suffice to prove
Hara's theorem as it was claimed recently. By explicit calculation we show that
the additional implicit assumption made in such "proofs" is that of a
sufficiently localized current.Comment: 8 pages, Late
