The Gluon Exchange Model for diffractive and inelastic collisions

We propose a new model for homogeneous description of hadron-hadron and hadron-nucleus collisions, the Gluon Exchange Model, fundamentally based on color octet (gluon) exchange. In proton-proton collisions we provide an exact final state proton neutron spectrum including diffractive peak. proton-nucleus reactions find that projectile diquark cannot survive in more than about half multiple proton-nucleon processes consequently must be very frequently disintegrated, leading to long transfers baryon number over rapidity space.
