Midrapidity hyperon production in pp and pA collisions from low to LHC energies

Abstract

The experimental data on p, Lambda, Xi-, Omega-, baryons and the corresponding antibaryons spectra obtained by different collaborations are compared with the results of the calculations performed into the frame of the Quark-Gluon String Model. The contribution of String Junction diffusion and the inelastic screening corrections are accounted for in the theoretical calculations. The predictions of the Quark-Gluon String Model both for pp and pA collisions are extended up to the LHC energies.
