Motivations & Goals
Development of a universal phenomenological description
of high-pT particle production in inclusive reactions to search for:
- new physics phenomena in elementary processes (quark compositeness, fractal space-time, extra dimensions, ...) - signatures of exotic state of nuclear matter (phase transitions, quark-gluon plasma, …) - complementary restrictions for theory (nonperturbative QCD effects, Standard Model, ...).
Analysis of new pp experimental data obtained at RHIC to verify z-scaling observed at U70, ISR, SppS, and Tevatron
in high-pT particle production and predictions for LHC.

Locality in inclusive reactions
Locality of hadron interactions: at sufficiently high energies hadrons and nuclei interact via interactions of their constituents (partons, quarks and gluons,...). Gross features of an inclusive particle distribution can be described in terms of the kinematic characteristics of the corresponding constituent subprocesses (V.S. Stavinsky 1979).

6
Self-similarity principle
Self-similarity of hadron interactions reflects a property that hadron constituents, their interactions, and formation of the produced particles are similar.
The self-similarity is connected with dropping of certain dimensional quantities out of the description of physical phenomena.
Multiple interaction of the constituents is an ensemble of mutually similar individual sub-processes. These properties are common to various interactions of hadrons and nuclei at high energies.

Fractality of hadron matter
Fractality is a specific feature connected with sub-structure of the interacting objects (hadrons and nuclei). Fractal compositeness includes sub-structure of hadron constituents over a wide scale range.
Fractality of soft processes concerning the multiparticle production was investigated by many authors (A.Bialas, R.Peshchanski, I.Dremin, E.DeWolf,…).
Fractality in hard processes regards fractal structure of the colliding objects and fractal character of particle formation. This aspect was specifically built into the definition of the scaling variable z.
The variable z is a fractal measure which can be attributed to any inclusive reaction.

Properties of z-presentation in pp
Energy independence of Ψ(z) (s1/2 > 20 GeV)
Angular independence of Ψ(z) (θcms>3-50,..)
Power law, Ψ(z) ~ z-β (z >4)
Multiplicity independence of Ψ(z) (dNch/dη=1.5-26.) Flavor independence of Ψ(z) (π,K,…)
M.T., I.ZborovskyPhys.At.Nucl. 70,1294(2007)Phys.Rev. D75,094008(2007)
These properties reflect self-similarity, locality, and fractality of the hadron interaction at constituent level.
It concerns the structure of the colliding objects, interactions of their constituents, and fragmentation process.

Multiplicity dependence of pp spectra Why is it interesting ?
Measured multiplicity density dNch/d in pp & pp is much more larger than dNch/d/(0.5Np) in central AA collisions at AGS, SppS, and RHIC

Experimentally measurable quantities: σ, s1/2, N, dN/dη, …
Model dependent quantities: T, p, V, c, μ, …
The quantities c and dNch/dη|0 have physical meaning of “heat capacity” and “temperature” of the produced medium. Entropy S of the system depends on the resolution Ω-1. Maximal entropy S minimal resolution Ω-1.

QCD test of z-scaling
QCD is basic theory for calculations of hadron interactions in terms of quarks and gluons. Perturbative expansion is under control (LO, NLO, ...). Non-perturbative effects – PDFs, FFs, μR, μF, μH, are partially under control. Correct extrapolation in low and high (x,pT) range is restricted by available data (e+e–, DIS,…). Additional constraints on PDFs and FFs are needed to confirm their universality (gluons, flavor, …). Soft regime (multiple interactions, … ).
A lot of data are analyzed in framework of z–presentation. New confirmations from RHIC and Tevatron are obtained. Can NLO QCD describe z-scaling in soft and hard regime ? …..

Conclusions (I) New analysis of FNAL, ISR, and RHIC data on high-pT hadron
spectra in the framework of z-scaling is performed. Properties of z-presentation are confirmed. STAR data on multiplicity dependence of KS
0 & Λ spectra in pp
collisions give new insight on “heat capacity” c and fractal dimension ε.
z-Scaling is tested by NLO QCD:
- Self-similar features of particle production dictated
by z-scaling give restriction on the asymptotic behavior
of inclusive spectra in high-pT region.
- They are not reproduced by NLO QCD evolution of spectra with available PDFs and FFs in TeV energy range.
ISMD'07, August 4-9, 2007, Berkeley, USA
32
Conclusions (II)
z-scaling in pp collisions is a regularity which reflects self-similarity, locality, and fractality of the hadron interactions at a constituent level. It concerns the structure of colliding objects, interactions of their constituents, and fragmentation process.
New experimental data on particle spectra over a wide range of collision energy, transverse momenta, production angle, and multiplicity density in pp collisions allow us to search for new phenomena in extreme conditions at RHIC.
