Soft and hard Pomerons in hadron elastic scattering at small t

in Physical Review. D (2006), 73(3),

We consider simple-pole descriptions of soft elastic scattering for pp, (p) over barp, pi(+/-)p and K(+/-)p. We work at t and s small enough for rescatterings to be effectively absorbed in a simple-pole ... [more ▼]

We consider simple-pole descriptions of soft elastic scattering for pp, (p) over barp, pi(+/-)p and K(+/-)p. We work at t and s small enough for rescatterings to be effectively absorbed in a simple-pole parametrization, and allow for the presence of a hard Pomeron. After building and discussing an exhaustive dataset, we show that simple poles provide an excellent description of the data in the region -0.5 GeV2<= t <= -0.1 GeV2, 6 GeV <= root s <= 63 GeV. We show that new form factors have to be used, and get information on the trajectories of the soft and hard Pomerons. [less ▲]

Non-forward elastic hadron-scattering data are collected and analysed within the Regge approach. Through an analysis of the data in small bins in t, we have directly extracted the pomeron trajectory and the hadronic form factors (or reggeon couplings). We found higher values than usually used for the intercept and for the slope of the soft pomeron trajectory. The presence of zeros in t for the effective hadronic form factors is emphasised.

We present predictions on the total cross sections and on the ratio of the real part to the imaginary part of the elastic amplitude (rho parameter) for present and future pp and pbar p colliders, and on ... [more ▼]

We present predictions on the total cross sections and on the ratio of the real part to the imaginary part of the elastic amplitude (rho parameter) for present and future pp and pbar p colliders, and on total cross sections for gamma p -> hadrons at cosmic-ray energies and for gamma gamma -> hadrons up to sqrt(s)=1 TeV. These predictions are based on a study of many possible analytic parametrisations and invoke the current hadronic dataset at t=0. The uncertainties on total cross sections, including the systematic theoretical errors, reach 1% at RHIC, 3% at the Tevatron, and 10% at the LHC, whereas those on the rho parameter are respectively 10%, 17%, and 26%.
