Extracting the dipole cross-section from photo- and electro-production total cross-section data

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v3

Abstract

We report on a successful attempt to extract the cross-section for the high-energy scattering of colour dipoles of fixed transverse size off protons using electroproduction and photoproduction total cross-section data, subject to the constraint provided by the ratio of the overall photon dissociation cross-section to the total cross-section.
