The entanglement entropy of two-body elastic scattering at high energies is studied by using the model-independent Levy imaging method for investigating the hadron structure. It is considered the finite entropy in the momentum Hilbert space properly regularized and results are compared to recent evaluation using the diffraction peak approximation. We present the entropy for RHIC, Tevatron and LHC energies pointing out the underlying uncertainties.

Based on reflection symmetry in the reaction plane, it is shown that measuring the transverse spin-transfer coefficient $K_{yy}$ in the $bar{K}N to KXi$ reaction directly determines the parity of the produced cascade hyperon in a model-independent wa y as $pi_Xi =K_{yy}$, where $pi_Xi =pm 1$ is the parity. This result based on Bohrs theorem provides a completely general, universal relationship that applies to the entire hyperon spectrum. A similar expression is obtained for the photoreaction $gamma N to K K Xi$ by measuring both the double-polarization observable $K_{yy}$ and the photon-beam asymmetry $Sigma$. Regarding the feasibility of such experiments, it is pointed out that the self-analyzing property of the $Xi$s can be invoked, thus requiring only a polarized nucleon target.
We analyse in detail the role of additional hadron-hadron interactions in elastic photon-initiated (PI) production at the LHC, both in $pp$ and heavy ion collisions. We first demonstrate that the source of difference between our predictions and other results in the literature for PI muon pair production is dominantly due to an unphysical cut that is imposed in these latter results on the dimuon-hadron impact parameter. We in addition show that this is experimentally disfavoured by the shape of the muon kinematic distributions measured by ATLAS in ultraperipheral PbPb collisions. We then consider the theoretical uncertainty due to the survival probability for no additional hadron-hadron interactions, and in particular the role this may play in the tendency for the predicted cross sections to lie somewhat above ATLAS data on PI muon pair production, in both $pp$ and PbPb collisions. This difference is relatively mild, at the $sim 10%$ level, and hence a very good control over the theory is clearly required. We show that this uncertainty is very small, and it is only by taking very extreme and rather unphysical variations in the modelling of the survival factor that this tension can be removed. This underlines the basic, rather model independent, point that a significant fraction of elastic PI scattering occurs for hadron-hadron impact parameters that are simply outside the range of QCD interactions, and hence this sets a lower bound on the survival factor in any physically reasonable approach. Finally, other possible origins for this discrepancy are discussed.

Colliding high energy hadrons either produce new particles or scatter elastically with their quantum numbers conserved and no other particles produced. We consider the latter case here. Although inelastic processes dominate at high energies, elastic scattering contributes considerably (18-25%) to the total cross section. Its share first decreases and then increases at higher energies. Small-angle scattering prevails at all energies. Some characteristic features are seen that provide informationon the geometrical structure of the colliding particles and the relevant dynamical mechanisms. The steep Gaussian peak at small angles is followed by the exponential (Orear) regime with some shoulders and dips, and then by a power-law drop. Results from various theoretical approaches are compared with experimental data. Phenomenological models claiming to describe this process are reviewed. The unitarity condition predicts an exponential fall for the differential cross section with an additional substructure to occur exactly between the low momentum transfer diffraction cone and a power-law, hard parton scattering regime under high momentum transfer. Data on the interference of the Coulomb and nuclear parts of amplitudes at extremely small angles provide the value of the real part of the forward scattering nuclear amplitude. The real part of the elastic scattering amplitude and the contribution of inelastic processes to the imaginary part of this amplitude (the so-called overlap function) at nonforward transferred momenta are also discussed. Problems related to the scaling behavior of the differential cross section are considered. The power-law regime at highest momentum transfer is briefly described.

The eikonalized parton-parton scattering amplitude at large $sqrt{s}$ and large impact parameter, is dominated by the exchange of a hyperbolic surface in walled AdS. Its analytical continuation yields a worldsheet instanton that is at the origin of t he Reggeization of the amplitude and a thermal-like quantum entropy ${cal S}_T$. We explicitly construct the entangled density matrix following from the exchanged surface, and show that its von-Neumann entanglement entropy ${cal S}_E$ coincides with the thermal-like entropy, i.e. ${cal S}_T={cal S}_E$. The ratio of the entanglement entropy to the transverse growth of the exchanged surface is similar to the Bekenstein entropy ratio for a black-hole, with a natural definition of saturation and the on-set of chaos in high energy collisions. The largest eigenvalues of the entangled density matrix obey a cascade equation in rapidity, reminiscent of non-linear QCD evolution of wee-dipoles at low-x and weak coupling. We suggest that the largest eigenvalues describe the probability distributions of wee-quanta at low-x and strong coupling that maybe measurable at present and future pp and ep colliders.
The Migdal effect in a dark-matter-nucleus scattering extends the direct search experiments to the sub-GeV mass region through electron ionization with sub-keV detection thresholds. In this paper, we derive a rigorous and model-independent Migdal-pho toabsorption relation that links the sub-keV Migdal process to photoabsorption. This relation is free of theoretical uncertainties as it only requires the photoabsorption cross section as the experimental input. Validity of this relation is explicitly checked in the case of xenon with an state-of-the-arts atomic calculation that is well-benchmarked by experiments. The predictions based on this relation for xenon, argon, semiconductor silicon and germanium detectors are presented and discussed.
