Soft Interactions and Diffraction Phenomena
Abstract
Description
Until the mystery of confinement is understood from the first principles, so called `soft physics' remains an important area of research, providing valuable information on underlying dynamics of strong interactions at long distances. In this short review an attempt is made to summarize recent experimental results on multiparticle production in e+e- annihilation and on diffraction at HERA.
