Results on soft and hard diffraction are briefly reviewed with emphasis on the interplay among factorization properties, universality of rapidity gap formation and unitarity.
New developments in the theory and phenomenology of high-energy scattering and diffraction that were presented and discussed at DIS2000 are reviewed.
The roll of diffraction in the formulation of soft scattering is investigated aiming to assess the resent SD TOTEM results.
In the pure scattering theory, the universality of the soft limit has been studied for a long time. In this talk we review the property of soft limit to relate an $n$-point amplitude to an $(n-1)$-point amplitude. We show how this property…
Existing data on total cross sections, on elastic scattering at small, moderate and large values of $t$, and on diffraction dissociation, reveal a surprisingly simple phenomenology, but they throw up many questions for the LHC to answer.
No surface is perfectly planar at all scales. The notion of flatness of a surface therefore depends on the size of the probe used to observe it. As a consequence rough interfaces are abundant in nature. Here the old, but still active field…
The diffraction trace formula ({\em Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 73}, 2304 (1994)) and spectral determinant are tested on the open three disk scattering system. The system contains a generic and exponentially growing number of diffraction…
We provide an introduction to mathematical theory of scattering resonances and survey some recent results.
General theory of neutron scattering (elastic and inelastic) is presented. It is applicable for the whole domain of slow neutrons and includes as limiting cases existing theories for thermal and cold neutrons and for elastic scattering of…
Some outstanding issues in high energy scattering are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on recent developments concerning the next-to-leading log corrections to the BFKL equation.
The soft topological spaces and some their related concepts have stud- ied in [7]. In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of soft connected topological spaces after a review of preliminary definitions.
I review some of the results presented in the working group on diffraction at DIS97, with a particular emphasis on the theory of diffractive hard scattering.
We outline inconsistencies in presently used models for high energy nuclear scattering, which make their application quite unreliable. Many "successes" are essentially based on an artificial freedom of parameters, which does not exist when…
I review various theory issues in diffraction that have been presented and discussed in the working group on diffractive interactions, and a few points concerning the comparison of theory with data.
You might've heard about various mathematical properties of scattering amplitudes such as analyticity, sheets, branch cuts, discontinuities, etc. What does it all mean? In these lectures, we'll take a guided tour through simple scattering…
Magnetic diffuse scattering -- the broad magnetic scattering features observed in neutron-diffraction data above a material's magnetic ordering temperature -- provides a rich source of information about the material's magnetic Hamiltonian.…
A method is presented which makes considerably more transparent possible patterns behind low-energy scattering data. In particular, structures associated with resonances, such as locations, widths and heights, become visible with a naked…
Scattering of a scalar particle on a crystalline plane with quadratic cell and identical fixed scatterers is solved precisely. Contradiction of the standard scattering theory is pointed out.
Quantum theory is proposed of high energy electrons scattering in ultrathin crystals. This theory is based upon a special representation of the scattering amplitude in the form of the integral over the surface surrounding the crystal, and…
Until the mystery of confinement is understood from the first principles, so called `soft physics' remains an important area of research, providing valuable information on underlying dynamics of strong interactions at long distances. In…
