Extrapolation of hadron production models to ultra-high energy
Abstract
QCD-inspired models of high-energy hadron production can be used to predict, among others, cross sections, mean production multiplicities and multiplicity fluctuations. These quantities are closely related due to the QCD factorization theorem and Abramovski-Gribov-Kancheli cutting rules. Focusing on the generic structure of models implementing minijet production, we discuss QCD predictions on minijet cross sections and constraints from HERA and Tevatron data.
