The showers of cosmic rays entering the Earth's atmosphere are main sources of information on cosmic rays and are also believed to provide information on elementary interactions at energies not accessible to accelerators. In this context we would like first to remind the role of inelasticity K and e

We describe high energy nuclear collisions by a superposition of isotropically decaying thermal sources ("fireballs '~) of freeze-out temperature T = 0.15 GeV. The longitudinal fireball superposition is taken as boost-invariant, in a rapidity range determined by the average energy loss of nucleons i
A coordinate-space description of shadowing in deep-inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering is presented. The picture in the laboratory frame is that of quark-gluon fluctuations of the high-energy virtual photon, propagating coherently over large light-cone distances in the nuclear medium. We discuss th
