This review describes the development of the physics of hadronic cross sections up to recent
LHC results and cosmic ray experiments. We present here a comprehensive review–written …

We describe the physical basis and some applications of an efficient event generator
designed for Monte Carlo simulations of atmospheric cascades at ultrahigh energies. The …

High-energy diffraction has become a hot and fashionable subject in recent years due to the
great interest triggered by the HERA and Tevatron data. These data have helped to show …

Colliding high-energy hadrons either produce new particles or scatter elastically with their
quantum numbers conserved and no other particles produced. We consider the latter case …

We show that the data on γ p and γ γ interactions can be derived from the pp and pp forward
scattering amplitudes using vector meson dominance and the additive quark model. The …

We present the results of an analysis of high-energy pp and pp scattering based on a model
in which the energy dependence of very-high-energy processes is driven by semihard …

We compute the tree level cross section for gluon-gluon elastic scattering taking into account
a dynamical gluon mass, and show that this mass scale is a natural regulator for this …

We estimate the degree of violation of Feynman scaling in both central and fragmentation
regions within unitarized QCD picture. Knowledge of scaling violation in the fragmentation …

Measurements of the total cross section and of diffractive processes, which have been
performed in the last decade at the high-energy hadron colliders, are presented and …

Sibyll is one of the first microscopic interaction models that was specifically developed for
interpreting cosmic ray data. It combines non-perturbative concepts of simulating hadronic …
