Conclusions from ISR 1970-1990Conclusions from ISR 1970-1990
• Parton dynamics manifest in all areas of hadronic
interactions:
- rising central rapidity plateau (gluons, sea quarks)
- forward particle production pictures valence partons
(counting rules)
- hard parton scattering leads to high pT production
(perturbative QCD already applicable in the few
GeV/c region)• Underlying mechanism: Intermediate partonic state
present in all hadronic interactions, initiated by gluon exchange = colour exchange strings

Conclusions from NA49 2008Conclusions from NA49 2008
• What about the intermediate partonic phase?• What about the partonic central production
mechanism?• What about the trace of valence partons in forward
production?• What about the Drell-Yan mechanism?• What about partonic hard scattering?• Where is the shadow line between perturbative
and non-perturbative QCD?

Could it be that:Could it be that:
- there is no intermediate partonic phase
- there is no direct manifestation of partonic structure
and dynamics, examples: - absence of tightly bound diquarks, pentaquarks
(exotics in general?)
- alternative explanation for « rising rapidity plateau » and
forward hadron production
- the « shadow line » between soft and hard processes
is much higher in momentum transfer than generally
assumed

Could it finally be that:Could it finally be that:
- soft hadronic production is governed by high
mass resonance excitation and cascading
decay,
- not as assumed by thermodynamics
- not as used in « microscopic » models
- not as precribed by string fragmentation- experimentation should play a new role in a
situation where theory evidently breaks
down : the tools for this are available!
