We discuss several clues related to the possible asymptotic behavior of hadron interactions arising on the base of performed analysis of the recent TOTEM data at the LHC and emphasize that the deep-elastic scattering can provide an…
In 1970, on purely theoretical grounds, all total hadronic total cross sections were predicted to increase without limit for higher and higher energies. This was contrary to the conventional belief at that time. In 1978, an accurate…
The high-energy behaviour of soft scattering observables such as total cross sections, elastic scattering at small momentum transfer, diffractive dissociation and central production have been described successfully in the context of Regge…
We review the physics of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering and the results and perspectives for the measurements of the radius of the neutron distribution of the nucleus, of the weak mixing angle, and of new neutrino interactions…
The commonly used West and Yennie integral formula for the relative phase between the Coulomb and elastic hadronic amplitudes requires for the phase of the elastic hadronic amplitude to be constant at all kinematically allowed values of t.…
Well over a century after the discovery of the electron, we are still faced with serious conceptual issues regarding precisely what an electron is. Since the development of particle physics and the Standard Model, we have accumulated a…
The elastic scattering of two real photons in vacuum is one of the most elusive of the fundamentally new processes predicted by quantum electrodynamics. This explains why, although it was first predicted more than eighty years ago, it has…
We follow the time sequence of binary elastic collisions in a small collection of hard-core particles. Intervals between the collisions are characterized by the numbers of collisions of different pairs in a given time. It was shown…
In this paper, based on the analysis of the formula (2.2) for calculating the elastic scattering diagrams of microparticles on a multilayer crystal surface, derived by the author in the article [3], it is shown that the stochastic approach…
Under the influence of standardly used description of Coulomb-hadronic interference proposed by West and Yennie the protons have been interpreted as transparent objects; elastic events have been interpreted as more central than inelastic…
The recent measurements of the elastic cross section by the TOTEM Collaboration together with the first estimations of the inelastic cross sections by other LHC detectors are used to test the simplest version of the geometrical model of the…
We consider a quantum theory of elastic light scattering from a macroscopic atomic sample existing in the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) phase. The dynamics of the optical excitation induced by an incident photon is influenced by the…
The optical properties of a fixed atom are well-known and investigated. For example, the extraordinarily large cross section of a single atom as seen by a resonant photon is essential for quantum optical applications. Mechanical effects…
The development of ideas about the optical phenomenon called the accelerating matter effect led to the hypothesis of the existence of a very general acceleration effect. Its formulation is that the result of the particle interaction with…
If a set of charged objects collide in space and the fragments disperse, then this process will emit electromagnetic waves. Classical soft photon theorem determines the constant term and the leading power law fall-off of the wave-form at…
We analyse in detail the role of additional hadron-hadron interactions in elastic photon-initiated (PI) production at the LHC, both in $pp$ and heavy ion collisions. We first demonstrate that the source of difference between our predictions…
This paper investigates the elastic scattering by unbounded deterministic and random rough surfaces, which both are assumed to be graphs of Lipschitz continuous functions. For the deterministic case, an a priori bound explicitly dependent…
The standard model of particle physics is an extremely successful theory of fundamental interactions, but it has many known limitations. It is therefore widely believed to be an effective field theory that describes interactions near the…
We investigate a one-dimensional system of $N$ particles, initially distributed with random positions and velocities, interacting through binary collisions. The collision rule is such that there is a time after which the $N$ particles do…
We investigate the interaction between two flat-top solitons within the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation framework. Our study results point towards a significant departure of flat-top solitons collisional characteristics from…
