5 ISMD'07, August 4-9, 2007, Berkeley, USA 5 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 ISMD'07, August 4-9, 2007, Berkeley, USA 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.

13 ISMD'07, August 4-9, 2007, Berkeley, USA 13 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.

31 ISMD'07, August 4-9, 2007, Berkeley, USA 31 Conclusions (I)  New analysis of FNAL, ISR, and RHIC data on high-p T hadron spectra in the framework of z-scaling is performed.  Properties of z-presentation are confirmed.  STAR data on multiplicity dependence of K S 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-p T region. - They are not reproduced by NLO QCD evolution of spectra with available PDFs and FFs in TeV energy range.

32 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.
