Beside comparatively low energy Cherenkov gluons observed at RHIC, there could be high energy gluons at LHC, related to the high energy region of positive real part of the forward scattering amplitude. In both cases they give rise to particles emitted along some cone. The characteristics of the cones produced by these two types of gluons are different. Therefore different experiments are needed to detect them. The cosmic ray event which initiated this idea is described in detail.

The coherent hadron production analogous to Cherenkov radiation of photons gives rise to the ring-like events. Being projected on the ring diameter they produce the two-bump structure recently observed for the away-side jets at RHIC. The position of the peaks and their height determine such properties of the hadronic medium as its nuclear refractive index, the parton density, the free path length and the energy loss of Cherenkov gluons. Cherenkov gluons may be responsible for the asymmetry of dilepton mass spectra near ρ-meson observed in experiment. Beside comparatively low energy gluons observed at RHIC, there could be high energy gluons at LHC, related to the high energy region of positive real part of the forward scattering amplitude and possessing different characteristics. This would allow to scan (x, Q2)-plane determining the parton densities in its various regions.

Quantum geometry gives a regularization scheme-independent effective action, whose equation of motion for the conformal mode has a stable de Sitter solution at the high-energy region where the coupling of the self-interactions of the traceless mode can be neglected because of the asymptotic freedom. However, the dynamics of the traceless mode suggests that inflation ends at the low-energy region. The notable point is that this inflationary senario is determined only by the dynamics of quantum geometry without an artificial tuning in the previous work.
