A model for soft high-energy scattering is developed. The model is formulated in terms of effective propagators and vertices for the exchange objects: the pomeron, the odderon, and the reggeons. The vertices are required to respect standard…
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…
We use exponent pairs to establish the existence of many $x^a$-smooth numbers in short intervals $[x-x^b,x]$, when $a>1/2$. In particular, $b=1-a-a(1-a)^3$ is admissible. Assuming the exponent-pairs conjecture, one can take…
The theory part of the conference is summarized with certain emphasis on the results concerning the pomeron in soft and hard processes.
In the QCD the small~$x$ evolution of the interacting pomerons and odderons is studied with all angular momenta $l$ taken into account. The resulting system of coupled nonlinear evolution equations is formulated in the momentum space and…
Probably we have observed a new simple phenomena dealing with approximations to two real numbers.
Dual string models contain significant baryon transfers and seem essentially consistent with the available data. We here turn to a careful consideration of the relevant topological structures. The baryon transfer is associated with one of…
The configuration of the three neutrino masses can take two forms, known as the normal and inverted hierarchies. We compute the Bayesian evidence associated with these two hierarchies. Previous studies found a mild preference for the normal…
We report an odderon Regge trajectory emerging from a field theoretical Coulomb gauge QCD model for the odd signature JPC (P=C= -1) glueball states (oddballs). The trajectory intercept is clearly smaller than the pomeron and even the omega…
Central exclusive production in hadron-hadron collisions at high energies, for example p + p -> p + X + p, where the "+" represents a large rapidity gap, is a valuable process for spectroscopy of mesonic states X. At collider energies the…
We present and discuss two different topics where Tevatron and HERA data can be compared directly. A method allowing for a direct comparison of data with theoretical predictions is proposed for forward jet production at HERA. An application…
A method allowing for a direct comparison of data with theoretical predictions is proposed for forward jet production at HERA. It avoids the reconstruction of multi-parton contributions by expressing the experimental data directly as…
We present a program to measure the parton densities in the pomeron using diffractive deep inelastic scattering and diffractive photoproduction, and to test the resulting parton densities by applying them to other processes such as the…
The SELEX Collaboration has reported a very large isospin splitting of doubly charmed baryons. We show that this effect would imply that the doubly charmed baryons are very compact. One intriguing possibility is that such baryons have a…
Numerical results for the polaron dispersion are presented for an arbitrary number of space dimensions. Upper and lower bounds are calculated for the dispersion curves. They are rather close to each other in the cases of small…
The analysis of a series of seven observations of the nearby ($z=0.0809$) QSO, PG 1211+143, taken with the Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) on-board XMM-Newton in 2014, are presented. The high resolution soft X-ray spectrum, with a…
Neptune Trojans and Plutinos are two subpopulations of trans-Neptunian objects located in the 1:1 and the 3:2 mean motion resonances with Neptune, respectively, and therefore protected from close encounters with the planet. However, the…
Diffraction is an old subject which has received much interest in recent years due to the advent of diffractive hard scattering. We discuss some theoretical models and experimental results that have shown new striking effects, e.g. rapidity…
Recently the H1 and ZEUS collaborations have presented cross sections for DIS events with a forward jet. The BFKL formalism is able to produce an excellent fit to these data. The extracted intercept of the hard pomeron suggests that when…
An estimate is derived for the absolute magnitude of BFKL pomeron exchange at $t=0$. The analysis takes account of energy conservation and of the need realistically to model nonperturbative contributions to the BFKL integral from infrared…
