Some recent intermediate-and high-energy proton-nucleus research

A review of several new or very active areas of research in the field of intermediate-and high-energy proton-nucleus research is presented. Theoretical advances used in treating the data are described. The areas covered include: $p$—${}_{}{}^4{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$ elastic scattering and polarization; elastic and inelastic scattering, $A\ge 4$; the neutron pickup reaction; and particle production and elastic scattering near 180°.
