We consider exclusive $\pi^0$ production in ep-scattering. At high energies odderon and photon exchange contribute. The photon exchange contribution is evaluated exactly using data for the total virtual photon-proton absorption cross…
In the present paper, we extend the Froissaron-Maximal Odderon (FMO) approach at $t$ different from 0. Our extended FMO approach gives an excellent description of the 3266 experimental points considered in a wide range of energies and…
We explore the possibility of observing Odderon exchange in proton--ion collisions at the LHC, via the ultraperipheral photoproduction of C-even mesons. As well as the signal, we consider in detail the principle backgrounds, due to…
Based on the postulate that a $C$-odd exchange leads to repulsion in the particle-particle system (say, $pp$) and to attraction in the antiparticle-particle system (say, $\bar{p}p$), we show that the Odderon intercept cannot be greater than…
We show that the impact of the maximal odderon amplitude at t=0 and centre-of-momentum energy 13 TeV is small. We obtain a value of rho(t=0) at 13 TeV of the order of 0.12. The real part of the odderon amplitude grows like log(s/s0) at high…
We estimate the production of two meson pairs in high energy photon photon collisions produced in ultraperipheral collisions at LHC. We show that the study of charge asymmetries may reveal the existence of the perturbative Odderon and…
There seem to be recently an evidence for $C =$ -1 exchanges in $p p$ and $p \bar p$ elastic scattering at high energies. The analysis there is difficult as the two processes were not measured at the same (large) energies. Here we discuss…
We investigate the reaction $e p \to e PS X$ where PS denotes a pseudoscalar meson $\pi^0, \eta, \eta'$, or $\eta_c$ and X either a proton or resonance or continuum states into which the proton can go by diffractive excitation. At high…
We discuss the production of two pion pairs in photon collisions at high energies as it can take place in ultraperipheral collisions at hadron colliders such as the LHC. We calculate the according matrix elements in kT factorization and…
The unitarily extended Bialas-Bzdak model of elastic proton-proton scattering is applied, without modifications, to describe the differential cross-section of elastic proton-antiproton collisions in the TeV energy range, and to extrapolate…
In diffractive hadronic scattering processes, the Pomeron trajectory, originating from Regge theory, significantly contributes to the behavior of the total and differential cross sections; the same holds for the description of the proton…
The impact of different assumptions about high energy behavior of the total cross section of proton-proton interactions on the ratio of the real to imaginary part of the forward elastic scattering amplitude is analyzed. It is shown how…
In this paper we discuss the Odderon contribution in our model[19] that gives a fairly good description of $\sigma_{\rm tot}$ $\sigma_{\rm el}$and $B_{\rm el}$ for proton-proton scattering. We show that the shadowing corrections are large,…
Based on the AdS/CFT correspondence, we present a holographic description of various C-odd exchanges in high energy baryon-baryon and baryon-antibaryon scattering, and calculate their respective contributions to the difference in the total…
An eikonalized elastic proton-proton and proton-antiproton scattering amplitude, based on the suggestion of a finite sum of ladder diagrams, calculated from QCD and the number of $s-$channel gluon rungs and correspondingly the powers of…
We describe a new and model-independent L\'evy imaging method of quality fits to the published datasets and reconstruct the amplitude of high-energy $pp$ and $p\bar p$ elastic scattering processes. This method allows us to determine the…
In contrast to theoretical expectations, experimental results at sqrt(s)=200 GeV for the reaction gamma p --> pi0 X show no evidence for odderon exchange. The upper limit on the cross section is an order of magnitude smaller than the…
In studies of high energy $pp$ and $\bar pp$ scattering, the odd (under crossing) forward scattering amplitude accounts for the difference between the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ cross sections. Typically, it is taken as…
We provide a theorem to suggest that $t=0$ data may already be sufficient to detect possible asymptotic C-odd (Odderon) contributions. This can be done by comparing $\bar p p$ and $pp$ $t=0$ observables such as total cross sections, forward…
In this paper, the inclusive Pomeron-Pomeron, Reggeon-Reggeon, Pomeron-Reggeon as well as gluon-Pomeron(-Reggeon) and photon-Pomeron(-Reggeon) interactions for the $\rm \eta_{c}$ at the LHC energies have been examined in proton-proton,…
