Diffractive Vector Photoproduction using Holographic QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2018-09-19 v1

Abstract

We discuss diffractive photon-production of vector mesons in holographic QCD. At large s\sqrt{s}, the QCD scattering amplitudes are reduced to the scattering of pair of dipoles exchanging a closed string or a pomeron. We use the holographic construction in AdS5_5 to describe both the intrinsic dipole distribution in each hadron, and the pomeron exchange. Our results for the heavy meson photon-production are made explicit and compared to some existing experiments.
