Building on previous works of the mid 1960's, we construct an integral equation for forward elastic scattering (t=0) at arbitrary virtuality Q^2 and large s=W^2. This equation sums the ladder production of massless intermediate bosons to…
We investigate the high-energy behavior of the total cross section, $\sigma_{\text{tot}}$, and the ratio of the real to imaginary parts of the scattering amplitude, $\rho$, in both proton-proton and antiproton-proton channels. Our analysis…
The ISR and the 7 TeV LHC data indicate that the differential cross-section of elastic proton-proton scattering remains almost energy-independent at the transferred momentum $t\approx - 0.21\, \mathrm{GeV}^{2}$ at the level of $\approx 7.5…
Using an effective field theory (EFT) formalism for forward scattering, we reconsider the factorization of $2\to 2$ scattering amplitudes in the Regge limit. Expanding the amplitude in gauge invariant operators labelled by the number of…
The Regge description of forward hadronic scattering is extended from $\sim1\gev$ above each threshold up to the multi TeV range. This is achieved with a simple parametrization, that includes mass effects, a logarithmic growth based on an…
A large set of data on proton-proton differential cross sections, analyzing powers and the double polarization parameter A_NN is analyzed employing the Regge formalism. We find that the data available at proton beam momenta from 3 GeV/c to…
We review our recent description of high energy forward hadronic cross sections and in particular of pion scattering data by means of Regge theory. We obtain a prediction for the total proton-proton cross section at LHC. In addition, and…
We present the systematic analysis of the behavior of elastic pp scattering cross section in the region of the diffraction peak and the first diffraction minimum in the framework of quasi-eikonal Gribov-Regge approach, taking into account…
The $\gamma N \to \pi^0 N$ and $\gamma N \to \eta N$ reactions at photon beam energies above 4 GeV are investigated within Regge models. The models include $t$-channel exchanges of vector ($\rho$ and $\omega$) and axial vector ($b_1$ and…
We determine the scale of the logarithm in the Froissart bound on total cross-sections using absolute bounds on the D-wave below threshold for $\pi\pi$ scattering. E.g. for $\pi^0 \pi^0$ scattering we show that for c.m. energy…
A simple application of Regge theory, with 9 free parameters, provides a good fit to elastic scattering data at small t from 13.76 GeV to 13 TeV. It yields a value for rho, the ratio of the real part of the forward amplitude to its…
We discuss scattering in a CFT via the conformal partial-wave analysis and the Regge limit. The focus of this paper is on understanding an OPE with Minkowski conformal blocks. Starting with a t-channel OPE, it leads to an expansion for an…
We improve, in the energy region between $\bar{K}K$ threshold and $\sim~1.4$ GeV, the energy-dependent phase shift analysis of $\pi\pi$ scattering presented in a previous paper. For the S0 wave we have included more data above $\bar{K}K$…
The superscaling observed in inclusive electron scattering is described within the dilute Fermi gas model with interaction between the particles. The comparison with the relativistic Fermi gas (RFG) model without interaction shows an…
We predict pp elastic differential cross section at LHC at the c.m. energy sqrt(s) = 14 TeV and momentum transfer range |t| = 0 - 10 GeV^2, which is planned to be measured by the TOTEM group. The field theory model underlying our…
Using rapidity evolution equations we study two-to-two gauge-theory scattering amplitudes in the Regge limit. We carry out explicit computations at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy through four loops and present new results for…
The construction of general amplitudes satisfying symmetries and $S$-matrix constraints has been the primary tool in studying the spectrum of hadrons for over half a century. In this work, we present a new parameterization, which can…
The urgency of predictions in large-t region at LHC stimulated us to present a unified model of small and high t scattering at high energies. Our model is based upon a safe theoretical ground: analyticity, unitarity, Regge behavior, gluon…
We study positivity bounds in the presence of gravity. We first review the gravitational positivity bound at the tree-level, where it is known that a certain amount of negativity is allowed for the coefficients of higher-derivative…
It is shown that two physical phenomena are important for high excitations: (i) the screening of the universal gluon-exchange potential and (ii) the flattening of the confining potential owing to creation of quark loops, and both effects…
