Conformal Pomeron and Odderon in Strong Coupling

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2013-12-06 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We discuss how exact conformal invariance in the strong coupling leads naturally through AdS/CFT correspondence to a systematic expansion for the Pomeron and Odderon intercepts in power of λ1/2\lambda^{-1/2}, with λ=g2Nc\lambda=g^2N_c the 't Hooft coupling. We also point out the importance of confinement for a realistic treatment of DIS in the HERA energy range.
