Research interests
My research interests are in theoretical high energy particle physics. The interpretation of experiments with particle beams
at the colliders: the LHC at CERN, RHIC in BNL
and HERA at DESY (in the past) requires
the use of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) - the basic theory of the strong interactions.
My studies aim at the understanding of mechanisms of the strong interactions. In particular, I work on
- experimental signatures of parton saturation
- nonlinear evolution equations in QCD
- multiparton scattering
My
seminal paper on parton saturation, written together with Mark Wuesthoff,
has become classics in the field of high density QCD, being
cited
more than 1000 times.
