Particle production is an important topic in nuclear and particle
physics. At high energies, particle production is considered to
proceed via parton branching and subsequent fragmentation into
hadrons. The study of the dynamics of this process and the study of
the structure of hadrons in the context of quantum chromodynamics
(QCD) belong to the challenges of the standard model of elementary
particle physics, requiring new, nonperturba tive approaches in
field theory. Within a nucleus, many-body dynamics is important and
particle production may be used to determine many features of a
non-equilibrium quantum system at low or high temperatures. At this
Advanced Study Institute the different aspects of particle pro
duction were expanded upon in a series of lectures given by experts
in their fields, covering topics ranging from near-threshold meson
production in proton-proton collisions to correlations in multi-GeV
jet fragmentation in high-energy scattering processes and signals
of a quark-gluon plasma formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion
collisions. Strong emphasis was placed not only on state of the art
research, but also on the necessary physics back ground. The
lectures were supplemented by problem sets and discussion sessions.
There was also time for students to present short contributions on
their research."
