This is a personal recollection of several results involving the phenomenological study of the multi-Regge limit of scattering amplitudes. None of them would have been possible without the encouragement and constant support from Lev Nikolaevich Lipatov.

We study the phenomenology of a Z-boson field coupled to hypercharge. The Z propagator has a non-trivial Kallen-Lehmann spectral density due to the mixing with a higher dimensional inert vector field. As a consequence detection possibilities at hadro
n colliders are reduced. We determine the range of parameters where this field can be studied at the Tevatron and the LHC through its production cross section via the Drell-Yan mechanism.
Theories with extra dimensions of inverse TeV size (or larger) predict a multitude of signals which can be searched for at present and future colliders. In this paper, we review the different phenomenological signatures of a particular class of model
s, universal extra dimensions, where all matter fields propagate in the bulk. Such models have interesting features, in particular Kaluza-Klein (KK) number conservation, which makes their phenomenology similar to that of supersymmetric theories. Thus, KK excitations of matter are produced in pairs, and decay to a lightest KK particle (LKP), which is stable and weakly interacting, and therefore will appear as missing energy in the detector (similar to a neutralino LSP). Adding gravitational interactions which can break KK number conservation greatly expands the class of possible signatures. Thus, if gravity is the primary cause for the decay of KK excitations of matter, the experimental signals at hadron colliders will be jets + missing energy, which is typical of supergravity models. If the KK quarks and gluons decay first to the LKP, which then decays gravitationally, the experimental signal will be photons and/or leptons (with some jets), which resembles the phenomenology of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking models.
We study jet physics in the high energy regime of QCD. Based on the NLO BFKL equation, we construct a vertex for the production of a jet at central rapidity in k_T-factorization. A jet algorithm is introduced, and we take special care of the separati
on of multi-Regge and quasi-multi-Regge kinematics. The connection with the energy scale of the evolution is investigated in detail. The result is discussed for two situations: scattering of highly virtual photons, which requires a symmetric energy scale to separate the impact factors from the gluon Greens function, and hadron-hadron collisions, where a non-symmetric scale choice is needed. For the second case we are able to define a NLO unintegrated gluon density, valid in the small-x regime, and give the evolution equation for this density as well. In the second part, we examine the angular decorrelation of Mueller-Navelet jets. Using an operator formalism in the space of anomalous dimension and conformal spin, we implement the NLO BFKL Greens function to study the rapidity dependence of angular decorrelations. We incorporate the necessary summation of collinearly enhanced corrections beyond NLO accuracy. We compare our results with data from the Tevatron ppbar-collider and provide predictions for the LHC as well. We also extend our study to the angular decorrelation between a forward jets and the electron in deep inelastic ep scattering. The angular decorrelation has not been measured in DIS so far, but we give theoretical results for this observable which already implement the experimental cuts.
We examine, as model-independently as possible, the production of bileptons at hadron colliders. When a particular model is necessary or useful, we choose the 3-3-1 model. We consider a variety of processes: q anti-q -> Y^{++} Y^{--}, u anti-d -> Y^{
++} Y^{-}, anti-u d -> Y^+ Y^{--}, q anti-q -> Y^{++} e^{-} e^{-}, q anti-q -> phi^{++} phi^{--}, u anti-d -> -> phi^{++} phi^{-}, and anti-u d -> phi^{+} phi^{--}, where Y and phi are vector and scalar bileptons, respectively. Given the present low-energy constraints, we find that at the Tevatron, vector bileptons are unobservable, while light scalar bileptons (M_phi <= 300 GeV) are just barely observable. At the LHC, the reach is extended considerably: vector bileptons of mass M_Y <= 1 TeV are observable, as are scalar bileptons of mass M_phi <= 850 GeV.
Uncertainties of the MSSM predictions are due to an unknown SUSY breaking mechanism. To reduce these uncertainties, one usually imposes constraints on the MSSM parameter space. Recently, two new constraints became available, both from astrophysics: W
MAP precise measurement of the amount of the Dark Matter in the Universe and EGRET data on an excess in diffuse gamma ray flux. Being interpreted as a manifestation of supersymmetry these data lead to severe constraints on parameter space and single out a very restricted area. The key feature of this area is the splitting of light gauginos from heavy squarks and sleptons. We study the phenomenological properties of this scenario, in particular, the cross-sections of superparticle production, their decay patterns and signatures for observation at hadron colliders, Tevatron and LHC. We found that weakly interacting particles in this area are very light so that the cross-sections may reach fractions of a pb with jets and/or leptons as final states accompanied by missing energy taken away by light neutralino with a mass around 100 GeV.
