We discuss the statistical properties of a single-trajectory power spectral density $S(\omega,\mathcal{T})$ of an arbitrary real-valued centered Gaussian process $X(t)$, where $\omega$ is the angular frequency and $\mathcal{T}$ the…
The cross sections of the high energy proton-proton scattering are studied in a holographic QCD model, focusing on the Regge regime. In our model setup, the involved nonperturbative partonic dynamics is described by the Pomeron exchange,…
By properly treating the path integral over the boundary value of the Liouville field (associated with reparametrizations of the boundary contour) in open string theory, we derive consistent off-shell scattering amplitudes in d=26…
There are currently no models readily available that provide nucleon-nucleon spin dependent scattering amplitudes at high energies ($s \geq 6$ $ GeV^2$). This work aims to provide a model for calculating these high energy scattering…
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…
The Froissart bound on the total cross section is subjected to test against very high energy data. We have found no clear evidence for its violation. The scaling property of differential cross section in the diffraction region is…
Neglecting spin effects, one introduces here a subtle approximation for the scattering angle, which allows the obtaining of a logarithmic leading Regge pole, consistent with the Froissart-Martin bound. A simple parameterization is also…
Motivated by recent progress in the high-energy description of gravitational scattering, we develop a systematic Regge-theory framework for $2\to2+n$ amplitudes describing the scattering of two massive particles with $n$ graviton emissions,…
Available high energy data for both pp and \=pp total cross sections ($ 5 \ GeV \ < \ \sqrt s \ < \ 1.8 \ TeV$) are described by means of two well-known distinct parametrizations, characteristic of theoretical (``Regge-like" expression) and…
We present an effective action for the electroweak sector of the Standard Model valid for the calculation of scattering amplitudes in the high energy (Regge) limit. Gauge invariant Wilson lines are introduced to describe reggeized degrees…
Recently there are several evidences of the increase of the total cross section sigma(tot) to be log2 s consistent with the Froissart unitarity bound, and the COMPETE collaborations in the PDG have further assumed sigma(tot) = B log2(s/s0)…
We study the emergence of partonic behavior in scattering processes at large Mandelstam's variable $s$ from string amplitudes in holographic backgrounds. We generalize the approach of Polchinski and Strassler (2001) in two ways. (i) We…
We initiate the study of Regge theory in a bottom-up holographic model for QCD in the Veneziano limit, where the backreaction of the quarks to the gluon dynamics is included. We determine the parameters of the model by carrying out a…
A new effective action for the high energy quark-quark scatterings is obtained by applying a scaling approximation to the QCD action. The propagators are shown to factorize into the transverse and the longitudinal parts so that the…
We use a simple Regge model to determine the energy dependence of the analyzing power for pC scattering in the CNI region. We take the model of Cudell et al which determines the Regge couplings and intercepts for the I=0, non-flip Regge…
As the number of loops goes to infinity Feynman $\alpha$-parameters undergo a fixing mechanism which entails a gaussian representation for propagators in scalar field theories. Here, we describe this mechanism in the fullest detail. The…
We consider an effective theory with a single massive spin-2 particle and a gap to the cutoff. We couple the spin-2 particle to gravity, and to other lower-spin fields, and study the growth of scattering amplitudes of the particle in the…
Froissart Bound implies that the total proton-proton cross-section (or equivalently structure function) cannot rise faster than the logarithmic growth $\log^2 s \sim \log^2 1/x$, where \textit{s} is the square of the center of mass energy…
The first data from the TOTEM experiment agree well with Regge theory, and demand a hard-pomeron contribution.
The TOTEM Collaboration has measured the differential cross section of elastic proton-proton scattering $\mathrm{d}\sigma/\mathrm{d}|t|$ at $\sqrt{s} = 2.76$, 7, 8, and 13 TeV. It is observed that all $\mathrm{d}\sigma/\mathrm{d}|t|$ data…
