A Hamiltonian Model for Hard Inelastic Hadronic Collisions


Abstract in English

Hamiltonian eikonal model for multiple production in high energy hadron-hadron collisions is presented and worked out with the aim of providing a simple frame for various different observables. An important role is played by unitarity which is built in by construction in the Hamiltonian formulation. The eikonal approximation allows both a very effective simplification of the dynamics, and facilitates the discussion on the relevance of possible spatial inhomogeneities of the hadrons. The model is intended to describe only the hard interaction of the constituents, the structure of the incoming hadrons and the final hadronization processes are outside the scope of the present investigation.
