We examine the energy dependence of total cross-sections for photon processes and discuss the QCD contribution to the rising behaviour
We analyze $pp$ total cross section data from accelerator to cosmic-ray energies and show that the experimental information presently available indicate two different scenarios at the highest energies. One of them accommodates the…
A unified approach to total cross-sections, based on the QCD contribution to the rise with energy, is presented for the processes $pp$, $p{\bar p}$, $\gamma p, \gamma \gamma, e^+e^- \to hadrons$. For proton processes, a discussion of the…
We discuss the need to compare total cross-section measurements at LHC and HERA with each other and with available models in order to obtain a more precise prediction of the total hadronic cross-section at the future Linear Collider, thus…
In this note, we summarize and compare various model predictions for $pp$ total cross-section $\sigma_{\rm tot}^{pp}$, giving an estimate of the range of predictions for the total cross-section, $\sigma_{\rm tot}^{pp}$ expected at the LHC.…
Using vector meson dominance we calculate the $\gamma\gamma$ total cross section from data on $pp$, $p\bar p$ and $\gamma p$ total cross sections. Our result agrees with recent high energy measurements performed by the L3 experiment at the…
High energy hadronic total cross-section data are found to agree with the predictions of a QCD-string picture.
The high-energy behaviour of the total cross section for highly virtual photons, as predicted by the BFKL equation at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD, is discussed. The NLO BFKL predictions, improved by the BLM optimal scale setting, are…
A model for both proton and photon total cross-sections is presented and compared with data. The model is based on the eikonal representation, with QCD mini-jets to drive the rise and soft gluon kt-resummation into the Infrared region to…
In this paper the two-photon interactions at high energies are investigated considering different approaches for the QCD dynamics. In particular, we calculate the $\gamma^* \gamma^*$ total cross section in different theoretical approches…
Proton-proton total cross sections are measured with present day high energy colliders up to 2 TeV in the centre-of-mass of the system (10^{15}) eV in the laboratory). Several parameterizations, very succesful at low energies, can then be…
In this contribution, we discuss a total cross-section model which can be applied to both photon and purely hadronic processes. We find that the model can reproduce photo-production cross-sections, as well as extrapolations of gamma* p…
To settle the question whether the growth with energy is universal for different hadronic total cross-sections, we present results from theoretical models for pion-proton, proton-proton and proton-antiproton total cross-sections. We show…
An overview of the latest results of the LEP collaborations on QCD measurements in photon-photon collisions is presented, including measurements of the total hadronic cross-section, the production of heavy quarks and dijets and the…
This review describes the development of the physics of hadronic cross sections up to recent LHC results and cosmic ray experiments. We present here a comprehensive review - written with a historical perspective - about total cross-sections…
The advent of a next linear $e^\pm e^-$ collider and back-scatterd laser beams will allow the study of a vast array of high energy processes of the Standard Model through the fusion of real and virtual photons and other gauge bosons. As…
Recent results on total cross-section measurements in gamma-gamma and gamma*-gamma* collisions at LEP are reported. Phenomenological fits to the data are presented.
Comparison of P-P total cross-sections estimations at very high energies - from accelerators and cosmic rays - shows a disagreement amounting to more than 10 %, a discrepancy which is beyond statistical errors. Here we use a…
We describe a next-to-leading-order calculation of the fully exclusive parton cross section for the photoproduction of heavy quarks. We use our result to compute quantities of interest for current fixed-target experiments. We discuss…
Various differential cross sections of high-energy photon splitting in the electric fields of heavy atoms are calculated exactly in the parameter \al. The consideration is based on the quasiclassical approach applicable for small angles…
