Benchmarks for the Forward Observables at RHIC, the Tevatron-run II and the LHC

We present predictions on the total cross sections and on the ratio of the real part to the imaginary part of the elastic amplitude (rho parameter) for present and future pp and pbar p colliders, and on total cross sections for gamma p -> hadrons at cosmic-ray energies and for gamma gamma-> hadrons up to sqrt{s}=1 TeV. These predictions are based on an extensive study of possible analytic parametrisations invoking the biggest hadronic dataset available at t=0. The uncertainties on total cross sections, including the systematic errors due to contradictory data points from FNAL, can reach 1.9% at RHIC, 3.1% at the Tevatron, and 4.8% at the LHC, whereas those on the rho parameter are respectively 5.4%, 5.2%, and 5.4%.

A universal Regge pole model for all vector meson exclusive photoproduction by real and virtual photons

A model based on a dipole Pomeron framework for vector meson exclusive photoproduction by real and virtual photons shows very good agreement with the experimental data. The model does not violate unitarity constrains and describes in a universal manner all the available data for $ρ$, $ω$, $ϕ$, $J/ψ$ and $Υ$ vector meson photoproduction in the region of energies $1.7\le W \le 250 GeV$ and photon virtualities $0 \le Q^2 \le 35 GeV^2$.

Pomeron effective intercept, logarithmic derivatives of $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ in DIS and Regge models

The drastic rise of the proton structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$ when the Björken variable $x$ decreases, seen at HERA for a large span of $Q^2$, may be damped when $x\to 0$ and $Q^2$ increases beyond $\sim$ several hundreds \g2. This phenomenon observed in the Regge type models is discussed in terms of the effective Pomeron intercept and of the derivative $B_x=\partial{\ell n F_2(x,Q^2)}/\partial{\ell n(1/x)}$. The method of the overlapping bins is used to extract the derivatives $B_x$ and $B_Q=\partial{\ell n F_2(x,Q^2)}/\partial{Q^2}$ from the data on $F_2$ for $6.0\cdot 10^{-5}\le x\le 0.61$ and $1.2 \le Q^2$ (\g2) $\le 5000$. It is shown that the extracted derivatives are well described by recent Regge models with the Pomeron intercept equal one.

Proton structure function. Soft and hard Pomerons

Regge models for proton structure function with and without a hard Pomeron contribution are compared with all available data in the region $W>3$ GeV, $Q^{2}\leq 3000$ GeV$^{2}$ and $x<0.75$. It is shown that the data do not support a hard Pomeron term in $γ^{*} p$ amplitude. Moreover, the data support the idea that the soft Pomeron, either is a double pole with $α_{P}(0)=1$ in the angular momentum $j$-plane, or is a simple pole with $α_{P}(0)=1+ε$ where $ε\ll 1$.

Regge models of the proton structure function with and without hard Pomeron: a comparative analysis

A comparative phenomenological analysis of Regge models with and without a hard Pomeron component is performed using a common set of recently updated data. It is shown that the data at small $x$ do not indicate explicitly the presence of the hard Pomeron. Moreover, the models with two soft-Pomeron components (simple and double poles in the angular momentum plane) with trajectories having intercept equal one lead to the best description of the data not only at $W>3$ GeV and at small $x$ but also at all $x\leq 0.75$ and $Q^{2}\leq 30000$ GeV$^{2}$.

Rescattering corrections in elastic scattering

A detailed study of the rescattering series is performed within a model, using a generalized procedure of eikonalization and fitted to the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ elastic scattering data. We estimate and compare the various rescattering corrections to be added to the Born contribution in the amplitude. We find that their number is finite, whereas it increases with the energy and the transfer, like does their importance. In the domain where data exist, we find also that a correct computation must include, at least, all two- and three-Reggeon exchanges and some four- and five-Reggeon exchanges. Any approximation aiming to reduce this (large) number of exchange would be hazardous, especially when extrapolating. We extend our estimates in the domain of future experiments.

Exchange-degenerate Regge trajectories: a fresh look from resonance and forward scattering regions

The exchange-degeneracy of the mesonic $f$, $ω$, $ρ$ and $a_{2}$ Regge trajectories, dominant at moderate and high energies in hadron elastic scattering, is analyzed from two viewpoints. The first one concerns the masses of the resonances lying on these trajectories; the second one deals with the total cross-sections and the ratios of the real to the imaginary parts of the forward amplitudes of hadron and photon induced reactions. Neither set of data supports exact exchange-degeneracy.

Elastic pp and $\bar pp$ scattering in the Modified Additive Quark Model

The modified additive quark model, proposed recently, allows to improve agreement of the standard additive quark model with the data on the $pp, \bar pp, π^{\pm} p, γp$ and $γγ$ total cross-sections, as well as on the ratios of real to imaginary part of $pp$ and $\bar pp$ amplitudes at $t=0$. Here, we extend this model to non forward elastic scattering of protons and antiprotons. A high quality reproduction of angular distributions at 19.4 GeV $\leq \sqrt{s}\leq $ 1800 Gev is obtained. A zero at small $|t|$ in the real part of even amplitude in accordance with a recently proved high energy general theorem is found.

Logarithmically rising hh and $γh$ cross-sections: some features of model versus experimental data

A Regge model of the Pomeron with intercept equal to one, leading to rising cross-sections is considered. Analysis of the experimental data on hadron and photon induced interactions is performed within the model. It is shown that the available pure hadronic data as well as data on DIS are compatible with a high energy logarithmic behaviour of cross-sections and do not require a Pomeron intercept above one. The very important rôle of the preasymptotic contributions is especially emphasized.

Damping of the HERA effect in DIS?

The drastic rise of the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) when the Björken variable x decreases, seen at HERA for a large span of Q^2, negative values for the 4-momentum transfer, may be damped when Q^2 increases beyond several hundreds GeV^2. A new data analysis and a comparison with recent models for the proton structure function is proposed to discuss this phenomenon in terms of the derivative \partial ln F_2(x,Q^2)/\partial ln(1/x).

Eikonalization and Unitarity Constraints

An extensive generalization of the ordinary and quasi-eikonal methods is presented for the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ elastic scattering amplitudes, which takes into account in a phenomenological way all intermediate multiparticle states involving the crossing even and crossing odd combinations of Reggeons. The formalism in this version involves a maximum of three parameters corresponding to the intermediate states which are possible in this configuration. The unitarity restriction is investigated and particular cases are discussed. An interesting result that emerges concerns the Odderon trajectory intercept: we find that unitarity dictates that this quantity {\it must} be below or equal unity unless a very peculiar equality exists between the coupling of the particles to the Pomeron and the Odderon.

Of Dips, Structures and Eikonalization

We have investigated several models of Pomeron and Odderon contributions to high energy elastic $pp$ and $\bar p p$ scattering. The questions we address concern their role in this field, the behavior of the scattering amplitude (or of the total cross-section) at high energy, and how to fit all high energy elastic data. The data are extremely well reproduced by our approach at all momenta and for sufficiently high energies. The relative virtues of Born amplitudes and of different kinds of eikonalizations are considered. An important point in this respect is that secondary structures are predicted in the differential cross-sections at increasing energies and these phenomena appear quite directly related to the procedure of eikonalizing the various Born amplitudes. We conclude that these secondary structures arise naturally within the eikonalized procedure (although their precise localization turns out to be model dependent). The fitting procedure naturally predicts the appearance of a zero at small $|t|$ in the real part of the even amplitude as anticipated by general theorems. We would like to stress, once again, how important it would be to have at LHC both $pp$ and $p \bar p$ options for many questions connected to the general properties of high energy hadronic physics and for a check of our predictions.

Soft Dipole Pomeron in hadronic elastic and in deep inelastic scattering

A brief review on the Dipole Pomeron model is given. The model not only describes data on hadron-hadron interactions, but also allows to describe data on the proton structure function with a $Q^2$ independent intercept. Moreover the chosen Dipole Pomeron has an intercept equal to one and does not violate unitarity limit on the total elastic cross-section.

The proton structure function and a soft Regge Dipole Pomeron: a test with recent data

A recently published soft Regge Dipole Pomeron model intended for all $x$ and $Q^2$ is proved to give a good agreement with (non fitted) recent HERA data from ZEUS (SVX95) on the protonstructure function $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ at low $Q^2$ and low $x$. The model also reproduces (without fit) the recently estimated experimental derivatives ${\partial F_2^p\over\partial\ell n Q^2}$ and ${\partial \ell n F_2^p\over\partial\ell n (1/x)}$ in a wide $x$ and $Q^2$-region.

Of dips and structures

A detailed analysis of the existence of high energy secondary diffractive dips and structures in the extrapolations of the fits to the data is given. The existence of these dips and a fortiori their position is found to be rather model-dependent: present in all eikonalized models including Pomeron, Odderon and secondary Reggeons they disappear when an additional large- t term is added (as sometimes advocated).

New possibilities of old soft pomeron in DIS

A traditional Regge model with a $Q^2$-independent Pomeron intercept closed (or equal) to one is constructed in order to describe the available data on the proton structure function. A Dipole Pomeron model which does not explicitly violate unitarity is developed and investigated. An excellent agreement with the 1209 data is found ($χ^2/{dof}=1.11$) in the whole kinematical domain investigated by experiments. A comparison of the model with already existing ones is made. The $x-$, $Q^2-$slopes and the effective intercept are discussed as $Q^2$ and $x$ functions.
