Odderon in the light of collider low-$t$ data
Abstract
Odderon is the -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 -even contribution is challenging. The only chance is to consider the very low region of Coulomb nuclear interference or the diffractive dip region. Here we perform the analysis of elastic scattering and data at low momentum transfer GeV within large collider energy interval GeV 13 TeV in order to evaluate quantitatively the possible Odderon contribution. We use the two-channel eikonal model, which naturally accounts for the screening of the Odderon amplitude by the -even (Pomeron) exchanges.
