When colliding, the high energy hadrons can either produce new particles or scatter elastically without change of their quantum numbers and other particles produced. Namely elastic scatterings of hadrons are considered in this paper. The…
We investigate the hadron-hadron total cross sections at high energies in the framework of holographic QCD. In our model setup, the involved strong interaction is described by the Brower-Polchinski-Strassler-Tan Pomeron exchange kernel, and…
