The models of relativistic nuclear-nuclear collisions: statistical, as historically the first, and currently used - thermal, hydrodynamic, kinetic, and others will be described. Significant attention will be paid to the hydrodynamic approach to nuclear collisions modeling as the basis of all modern models. The pioneering analytical model - the hydrodynamic Landau model, as well as the more modern - Bjorken model will be considered in detail. The formation of hadron spectra in such models will be considered, the concept of "freeze-out" - the freezing of hadron spectra and chemical composition - will be introduced.

We investigate nucleon production in proton-nucleus collisions outside the kinematical boundary of proton-nucleon reactions.
The maximal energy of protons emitted in the backward direction is estimated.
We suggest that cumulative nucleons are produced by heavy baryonic resonances created in p+A collisions due to successive collisions with nuclear nucleons.
We also compare theoretical predictions to the results of Ultra Relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics simulations.

1. Introduction to the hydrokinetic approach.

The modern integrated hydrokinetic approach to A+A collisions will be presented. It includes a complete spatiotemporal picture of nucleus-nucleus collisions :
1) the formation of an initial nonthermal state of matter characterized by a certain distribution of the ultrahigh energy density;
2) a description of the process of thermalization of such an initial nonequilibrium state and the formation of (almost) locally-equilibrium initial conditions for the subsequent hydrodynamic expansion of the system;
3) viscous relativistic hydrodynamic chemically-equilibrium evolution of quark-gluon and then hadronic matter;
4) decay of a thermally and chemically (almost) locally-equilibrium medium into hadrons and resonances;
5) the evolution of the interacting hadron-resonant gas, and the formation of observable quantities.

08:30 → 10:00 The soft physics observables and the space-time picture of nuclear collisions in the integrated hydrokinetic model

4.The soft physics observables and the space-time picture of nuclear collisions in the integrated hydrokinetic model.

It will be demonstrated how using the integrated hydrokinetic model and the soft physics observables from Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) , to restore space-time picture of the matter evolution in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions. Will be considered the correlations of particles that are created in such collisions, primarily femtoscopic correlations, directly related to the spatiotemporal scales - the main parameters of the matter evolution. In this connection, the final state interaction method will also be studied, and the concept of the source function is introduced. It will be shown how to use these concepts to investigate in A + A collisions the strong interactions of protons with particles, such that their beams can not be created in accelerators, for instance, strange Lambda-baryons, Cascade-baryons and other hyperons.
