We overview symmetries of string scattering amplitudes in the high energy limits of both the fixed angle or Gross regime (GR) and the fixed momentum transfer or Regge regime (RR). We calculated high energy string scattering amplitudes (SSA)…
We have recently proposed an S-matrix for the planar limit of the N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory of Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena which leads to the all-loop Bethe ansatz equations conjectured by Gromov and Vieira. An…
The Variable S-matrix approach offers a unique way to extract low energy threshold parameters for a given NN potential. We extract those parameters for the np system from the NijmII and Reid93 potentials, to all partial waves with total…
We investigate the scattering theory of two particles in a generic $D$-dimensional space. For the s-wave problem, by adopting an on-shell approximation for the $T$-matrix equation, we derive analytical formulas which connect the Fourier…
We consider the scattering of zero branes off an elementary string in Matrix theory or equivalently gravitons off a longitudinally wrapped membrane. The leading supergravity result is recovered by a one-loop calculation in zero brane…
We perform a fit of the real Compton scattering (RCS) data below pion-production threshold to extract the electric ($\alpha_{E1}$) and magnetic ($\beta_{M1}$) static scalar dipole polarizabilities of the proton, using fixed-$t$ subtracted…
The splitting of photons in the presence of an intense magnetic field has recently found astrophysical applications in polar cap models of gamma-ray pulsars and in magnetar scenarios for soft gamma repeaters. Numerical computation of the…
We calculate some tree level scattering amplitudes for a generalization of the protostring, which is a novel string model implied by the simplest string bit models. These bit models produce a lightcone worldsheet which supports $s$ integer…
We consider an open string stretched between a Y=0 brane and a Y_theta=0 brane. The latter brane is rotated with respect to the former by an angle theta, and is described by a non-diagonal boundary S-matrix. This system interpolates…
The formalism to describe the scattering of a weakly bound projectile nucleus by a heavy target is investigated, using the Uncorrelated Scattering Approximation. The main assumption involved is to neglect the correlation between the…
The non-compact CFT of a class of NS-supported pp-wave backgrounds is solved exactly. The associated tree-level covariant string scattering amplitudes are calculated. The S-matrix elements are well-defined, dual but not analytic as a…
Departing from the observation that the Penrose limit of AdS_3 x S^3 is a group contraction in the sense of Inonu and Wigner, we explore the relation between the symmetric D-branes of AdS_3 x S^3 and those of its Penrose limit, a…
In this work we apply the S-matrix bootstrap maximization program to the 2d bosonic O(N) integrable model which has N species of scalar particles of mass m and no bound states. Since in previous studies theories were defined by maximizing…
We present a bottom-up construction of vector effective field theories using the infrared structure of scattering amplitudes. Our results employ two distinct probes of soft kinematics: multiple soft limits and single soft limits after…
Line defects and scattering amplitudes have proven to be fruitful objects of study in the context of holographic dualities. They serve as valuable theoretical laboratories for the development of non-perturbative methods and have provided…
We introduce the notion of branon jets, states of collinear flux tube excitations. We argue for the analyticity, crossing and unitarity of the multi-particle scattering of these jets and, through the S-matrix bootstrap, place bounds on a…
We present results from analytic solutions to the running coupling, full next-to-leading order, and collinearly improved next-to-leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equations in the saturation region with the smallest dipole size QCD running…
We derive compact expressions for one-loop scattering amplitudes of four open-string vector bosons around supersymmetric configurations with intersecting or magnetized D-branes on toroidal orbifolds. We check the validity of our formulae…
We explore the S-matrices of gapped, unitary, Lorentz invariant quantum field theories with a global O($N$) symmetry in 1+1 dimensions. We extremize various cubic and quartic couplings in the two-to-two scattering amplitudes of vector…
The complete spectrum of states in the supersymmetric principal chiral model based on SU(n) is conjectured, and an exact factorizable S-matrix is proposed to describe scattering amongst these states. The SU(n)_L*SU(n)_R symmetry of the…
