QCD as a gauge non-Abelian theory imposes severe constraints on the structure of the baryon wave function. We point out that, contrary to a widely accepted belief, the traces of baryon number in a high-energy process can reside in a non-perturbative configuration of gluon fields, rather than in the valence quarks. We argue that this conjecture can be tested experimentally, since it can lead to substantial baryon asymmetry in the central rapidity region of ultra-relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions.

  1. Hadronic scattering in (1+1)D SU(2) lattice gauge theory from tensor networks

    hep-lat 2025-10 conditional novelty 8.0

    First tensor-network simulation of real-time hadronic scattering in (1+1)D SU(2) lattice gauge theory reveals entanglement and spatial delocalization in the baryon-number-one sector at strong coupling.

  2. Ultra-peripheral Collisions

    hep-ex 2026-07 conditional novelty 1.0

    Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions are reviewed as the energy frontier for photon physics; the paper consolidates a decade of LHC/RHIC results and proposes no new measurement.
