We review the phenomenology of pi^0 production at large transverse momentum in proton-induced collisions. Uncertainties in the next-to-leading-order predictions of Quantum Chromodynamics are discussed. The comparison with data reveals that the disagreement between theory and experiment lies essentially in an overall normalization factor. The situation for pi^0 production is contrasted with that of prompt-photon production in hadronic collisions.

    A deep neural network interpolates and extrapolates proton-proton reference transverse-momentum spectra to unmeasured center-of-mass energies using ALICE LHC data.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    NLO perturbative QCD calculations predict only a mild few-percent excess of antineutrons over antiprotons in pp collisions, not supporting the ~30% excess reported by NA49.
