At the LHC, two experiments - ATLAS and TOTEM - measure the total proton-proton cross section. Unfortunately, a significant discrepancy, persisting at different collision energies, is observed between the values reported by the two groups.…
In this work we demonstrate that a distorted double hump like missing energy ($\slashed{E}$) or missing transverse momentum ($\slashed{E}_T$) or missing mass ($\slashed{M}$) distribution at $e^+e^-$ colliders may hint towards the presence…
The urgency of predictions in large-t region at LHC stimulated us to present a unified model of small and high t scattering at high energies. Our model is based upon a safe theoretical ground: analyticity, unitarity, Regge behavior, gluon…
Hard single diffractive processes are studied within the framework of the triple--Pomeron approximation. Using a Pomeron structure function motivated by Regge--theory we obtain parton distribution functions which do not obey momentum sum…

Single diffractive dissociation (SDD) of nucleon in high-energy proton-proton and proton-antiproton collisions is considered in terms of a simple two-Reggeon model with nonlinear Regge trajectories. It is demonstrated that the $f$-Reggeon…
We suggest that non-trivial correlations between the dark matter particle mass and collider based probes of missing transverse energy H_T^miss may facilitate a two tiered approach to the initial discovery of supersymmetry and the subsequent…

The cross section for the nuclear diffractive dissociation in proton-lead collisions at the LHC is estimated. Based on the current theoretical uncertainties for the single (target) diffactive cross section in hadron-hadron reactions one…
The cross sections of the high energy proton-proton scattering are studied in a holographic QCD model, focusing on the Regge regime. In our model setup, the involved nonperturbative partonic dynamics is described by the Pomeron exchange,…
We calculate differential distributions for the $p p \to p p \gamma$ reaction at the LHC energy $\sqrt{s} = 14$ TeV. We consider diffractive classical bremsstrahlung mechanisms including effects of non point-like nature of protons. In…
