Dynamical gluon mass and $pp$ elastic scattering

The application of a modified gluon propagator and an infrared frozen running co upling constant in the description of the proton-proton elastic scattering is in vestigated. The model based on the exchange of the Pomeron as a pair of non-pert urbative gluons is modified to include the frozen coupling constant in the infra red kinematic region. A good fit to the data of the differential cross section f or different center of mass energies (53 GeV and 1.8 TeV) is obtained.

Meson Form Factors and Non-Perturbative Gluon Propagators

The meson (pion and kaon) form factor is calculated in the perturbative framework with alternative forms for the running coupling constant and the gluon propagator in the infrared kinematic region. These modified forms are employed to test the sensibility of the meson form factor to the nonperturbative contributions. Its is a powerful discriminating quantity and the results obtained with a particular choice of modified running coupling constant and gluon propagator have a good agreement with the available data, for both mesons, indicating the robustness of the method of calculation. Nevertheless, nonperturbative aspects may be included in the perturbative framework of calculation of exclusive processes.
