In this letter we demonstrate that our dipole model is successful in describing the inclusive production within the same framework as diffractive physics. We believe that this achievement stems from the fact that our approach incorporates the positiv
e features of the Reggeon approach and CGC/saturation effective theory, for high energy QC
In this paper we study the relation between the light-front (infinite momentum) and rest-frame descriptions of quarkonia. While the former is more convenient for high-energy production, the latter is usually used for the evaluation of charmonium prop
erties. In particular, we discuss the dynamics of a relativistically moving system with nonrelativistic internal motion and give relations between rest frame and light-front potentials used for the description of quarkonium states. We consider two approximations, first the small coupling regime, and next the nonperturbative small binding energy approximation. In both cases we get consistent results. Our results could be relevant for the description of final state interactions in a wide class of processes, including quarkonium production on nuclei and plasma. Moreover, they can be extended to the description of final state interactions in the production of weakly bound systems, such as for example the deuteron.
In this review we present our model which is an example of the self consistent approach that incorporates our theoretical understanding of long distance physics, based both on N=4 SYM for strong coupling and on the matching with the perturbative QCD
approach. We demonstrate how important and decisive the LHC data were on strong interactions which led us to a set of the phenomenological parameters that fully confirmed our theoretical expectations, and produced a new picture of the strong interaction at high energy. We also show how far we have come towards creating a framework for the description of minimal bias events for high energy scattering without generating Monte Carlo codes.
In the framework of our model (GLM) for soft interaction with $alpha_{pom}(0)=0$, we propose a procedure based on Gribovs partonic interpretation of the Pomeron, which enables one to calculate the diffractive mass distributions in hadron-hadron scatt
ering. Using the analogy with deep-inelastic scattering, we associate the Pomeron-quark interaction with the Good-Walker sector of the hadron-hadron scattering, and the Pomeron-gluon sector with the t-channel Pomeron interactions. We present predicted mass distributions for the LHC energies
In this paper we present a two channel model with the goal of reproducing the soft scattering data available in the ISR-Tevatron energy range, and extend the model results to LHC and Cosmic Rays energies. A characteristic feature of the model is that
we represent the sum of all diffractive final states at a vertex, by a single diffractive state. Our two main results are: (i) The approach of the elastic scattering amplitude to the black disc bound is very slow, reaching it at energies far higher than the GZK ankle cutoff. (ii) Our predicted survival probability for Higgs exclusive central diffractive production at the LHC is 0.7%, which is considerably smaller than our previous estimate. The above features are compatible with a parton-like model in which the traditional soft Pomeron is replaced by an amplitude describing the partonic system, which issaturated in the soft (long distance) limit.
In this paper we argue that in the kinematic range given by $ 1 ll ln(1/as^2) ll as Y ll frac{1}{as}$, we can reduce the Pomeron calculus to the exchange of non-interacting Pomerons with the renormalized amplitude of their interaction with the target
. Therefore, the summation of the Pomeron loops can be performed using the improved Mueller, Patel, Salam and Iancu approximation and this leads to the geometrical scaling solution. This solution is found for the simplified BFKL kernel. We reproduce the findings of Hatta and Mueller that there are overlapping singularities. We suggest a way of dealing with these singularities.
