Nucleus-nucleus interactions in very-high-energy cosmic ray experiments

Abstract

Abstract.A review of unusual results of experiments in cosmic rays which cannot be explained in the frame of the existing models of hadron interactions is presented. Requirements to features of a new model which are necessary for explanation of all observed unusual events and phenomena are formulated. A model of hadron interactions with production of QGM blobs with large orbital momentum is considered. Its possibilities for explanation of various unusual events and phenomena are discussed.
