The high energy part of the hadron spin flip amplitude is examined in the framework of the new high energy general structure (HEGS) model of the elastic hadron scattering at high energies. The different forms of the hadron spin flip…
A brief historical overview of various modern approaches to the problem under consideration is given. It includes existing models based on a sum of different terms of the scattering amplitude with different signs and Regge-eikonal models…
We consider the first LHC data for pp collisions in the framework of Regge theory. The integral cross sections and inclusive densities of secondaries are determined by the Pomeron exchange, and we present the corresponding predictions for…
The Regge-Gribov model describing interacting pomerons and odderons is proposed with triple reggeon vertices taking into account the negative signature of the odderon. Its simplified version with zero transverse dimensions is first…
The recent data by the TOTEM Collaboration on $\sigma_{tot}$ and $\rho$ at 13 TeV, have shown agreement with a leading Odderon contribution at the highest energies, as demonstrated in the very recent analysis by Martynov and Nicolescu (MN).…
The observed absence of the small-$t$ oscillations in differential cross--section of the elastic scattering is considered as a consequence of the reflective scattering mode appearance at the highest energy of the LHC $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV.
We study the high-energy behavior of the elastic scattering amplitude using two distinct unitarization schemes: the eikonal and the $U$-matrix. Our analysis begins with a formalism involving solely Pomerons, incorporating pion-loop…
The predictions of a model which was tuned in 2013 to describe the elastic and diffractive $pp$- and/or $p\bar p$-data at collider energies up to 7 TeV are compared with the new 13 TeV TOTEM results. The possibility of an odd-signature…
We calculate the order alpha_s^2 and order alpha_s^3 QCD contributions to colour-singlet exchange in the leading log s approximation. We implement the resulting amplitude at the hadronic level and thus construct the QCD pomeron and odderon…
Elastic proton-proton scattering is reviewed starting from the results of the LHC experiments conducted by the TOTEM and ATLAS collaborations, and the HEGS model and a simple phenomenological parametrisation are compared with the new data…
We examine the Regge theoretical properties for the scaling observed in pp elastic scattering differential cross-sections at the LHC. A positive signature amplitude (i.e. the Pomeron) with scaling properties has been derived. It is found to…
Odderon is the C-odd amplitude which does not die out (or die very slowly) with energy. We consider the constrains on the Odderon properties and the perturbative QCD Odderon given at the lowest $\alpha_s$ order by the three gluon exchange.…
An analysis of the possible contribution of the hard pomeron in elastic hadron scattering at LHC energies is made. It is shown that such a contribution has affected the shape of the differential cross section in the Coulomb-hadron…
Using the largest data set available, we determine the best values that the data at t=0 (total cross sections and real parts of the hadronic amplitudes) give for the intercepts and couplings of the soft pomeron and of the rho/omega and a/f…
We analyse the recent LHC data at 7 and 8 TeV for pp elastic scattering with special attention for the structure of the real part, which is shown to be crucial to describe the differential cross section in the forward region. We determine…
We show that the asymmetry in the fractional energy of charm versus anticharm jets produced in high energy diffractive photoproduction is sensitive to the interference of the Odderon $(C = -)$ and Pomeron $(C = +)$ exchange amplitudes in…
The model of elastic scattering amplitudes dominated by the triple (at $t=0$) pomeron pole suggested earlier is modified to confront to existing experimental data on $pp$ and $\bar pp$ total and differential cross sections at $\sqrt{s}\geq…
A novel model-independent L\'evy imaging method is employed for reconstruction of the elastic $pp$ and $p\bar p$ scattering amplitudes at low and high energies. The four-momentum transfer $t$ dependent elastic slope $B(t)$, the nuclear…
Constraints on the t-dependence of the hadronic scattering amplitude at asymptotic energies are derived by considering the exchange of the Pomeron, as a Regge pole, between off-shell gluons. Covariant reggeization ensures pure spin alpha…
The ISR and the 7 TeV LHC data indicate that the differential cross-section of elastic proton-proton scattering remains almost energy-independent at the transferred momentum $t\approx - 0.21\, \mathrm{GeV}^{2}$ at the level of $\approx 7.5…
