Odderon effects in the differential cross-sections at Tevatron and LHC energies

In the present paper, we extend the Froissaron-Maximal Odderon (FMO) approach at $t$ different from 0. Our extended FMO approach gives an excellent description of the 3266 experimental points considered in a wide range of energies and momentum transferred. We show that the very interesting TOTEM results for proton-proton differential cross-section in the range 2.76-13 TeV, together with the Tevatron data for antiproton-proton at 1.8 and 1.96 TeV give further experimental evidence for the existence of the Odderon. One spectacular theoretical result is the fact that the difference in the dip-bump region between $\bar pp$ and $pp$ differential cross-sections is diminishing with increasing energies and for very high energies (say 100 TeV), the difference between $\bar pp$ and $pp$ in the dip-bump region is changing its sign: $pp$ becomes bigger than $\bar pp$ at $|t|$ about 1 GeV$^2$. This is a typical Odderon effect. Another important - phenomenological - result of our approach is that the slope in $pp$ scattering has different behavior in $t$ than the slope in $\bar pp$ scattering. This is also a clear Odderon effect.

Odderon: models vs experimental data - a short review of recent papers

The surprising low TOTEM datum $ρ_{pp}$ = 0.09$\pm$0.01 at 13 TeV \cite{TOTEM-1} generated an important flux of papers, which can be classified in three categories: 1) papers which claim that this result is the first experimental discovery of the Odderon, namely in its maximal form; 2) papers which tried, without success, to find alternative explanations of this result; 3) papers which contest the discovery of the Maximal Odderon. In the present short note we discuss two recent papers belonging to the third category.

Did TOTEM experiment discover the Odderon?

The present study shows that the new TOTEM datum $ρ^{pp} = 0.098 \pm 0.01$ can be considered as the first experimental discovery of the Odderon, namely in its maximal form.

Unified Model for Small-t and High-t Scattering at High Energies: Predictions at RHIC and LHC

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 exchange and saturation of bounds established in axiomatic quantum field theory. We make precise predictions for the behavior of the differential cross sections at high t, the evolution of the dip-shoulder structure localized in the region of -t between 0.5 and 0.8 GeV**2 and the radical violation of the exponential behavior of the first diffraction cone at small t.
