We show that it is possible to describe the effective Pomeron intercept using NLO BFKL evolution together with collinear improvements. In order to obtain a good description over the whole range of Q^2 we use a non-Abelian physical…
Materials containing high densities of exceptionally displaceable ions (e.g. perovskites) have extremely large ratios of their static to high-frequency dielectric constants, > 2. Large polarons form in such materials as their electronic…
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…
In this lecture I give a short introduction to the high energy limit of hadronic interactions. The elements of the Regge theory, Pomeron in QCD and high energy scattering in AdS/CFT correspondence are presented. I discuss the resummation of…
High-energy data of accreting white dwarfs give access to the regime of the primary accretion-induced energy release and the different proposed accretion scenarios. We perform XMM-Newton observations of polars selected due to their ROSAT…
The masses of the yet undiscovered baryons containing single $c$ or $b$ quarks are estimated from the known masses using the following rules: equal distances in mass between the isomultiplets forming sextets, equal mass differences between…
We propose a new measurement to be performed at the Tevatron which can be decisive to distinguish between Pomeron-based and soft color interaction models of hard diffractive scattering.
Soft diffractive cross sections in $pp$ (or $\bar pp$), $\pi p$ and $\gamma p$ collisions are calculated using QCD-motivated pomeron. The $s$-channel unitarization of the amplitude is performed by the eikonal approach, and in the framework…
The interaction of heavy partons, charm and beauty, with the matter created in heavy ion collisions has been of great interest in recent years. Heavy partons were predicted to interact less strongly with the matter than light partons. In…
The four-pomeron vertex is studied in the perturbative QCD. Its dominating terms of the leading (zeroth and first) orders in the coupling constant and subdominant in the number of colors are constructed. The vertex consists of two terms,…
Hard, or high transverse momentum, pion photoproduction can be a tool for probing the parton structure of the beam and target. We estimate the soft contributions to this process, with an eye toward delineating the region where…
Second-order susceptibilities $\chi^{11}_{ij}$ of baryon, electric, and strangeness, $B$, $Q$, and $S$, charges, are calculated in the Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model and compared to available lattice QCD data. The susceptibilities are…
Recent developments in soft hadronic interactions are reviewed. Emphasis it put on measurements of the proton structure at low x, photon structure, diffraction and exclusive processes such as vector-meson production and their interpretation…
Many evidences for the existence of the superstrong interaction are presented and many predictions are made. The light antiquark flavor asymmetry is calculated and shown to agree with experimental data. The formation of galaxies is…
Simple and plausible rules are used to correlate the masses of the ground-state baryons containing single heavy ($b$ or $c$) quarks. A comparison with the experimental data shows that the observed mass difference between the $\Sigma_b$ and…
Odderon is the $C$-odd amplitude that does not fall (or decrease very slowly) with energy. The expected amplitude is small and mainly real. Therefore, extracting it from the data on top of a much larger $C$-even contribution is challenging.…
The intercept of the supercritical Pomeron is examined with the use of different forms of the scattering amplitudes of the bare Pomeron. The one-to-one correspondence between the eikonal phase and the ratio of the elastic and total cross…
Using data recorded with the Belle detector, we observe a new excited hyperon, an $\Omega^{*-}$ candidate decaying into $\Xi^0K^-$ and $\Xi^-K^0_S$ with a mass of $2012.4\pm0.7\ {\rm (stat)\pm\ 0.6\ (\rm syst)}\ {\rm MeV}/c^2$ and a width…
In the framework of a dynamical gluon mass model recently developed, we investigate the effects of two essential parameters in the description of elastic $pp$ and $\bar{p}p$ data at high energies: the soft Pomeron intercept and the…
A recently published soft Regge Dipole Pomeron model intended for all $x$ and $Q^2$ is proved to give a good agreement with (non fitted) recent HERA data from ZEUS (SVX95) on the protonstructure function $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ at low $Q^2$ and low…
