Total Cross-sections and Bloch-Nordsieck Gluon Resummation
نویسنده
چکیده
Physics Department and INFN, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy (Received October 26, 2004) The physics underlying the fall and eventual rise in various total crosssections at high energies has been investigated over a decade using a model based on the Bloch–Nordsieck resummation in QCD. Here a brief review of our latest results is presented and comparison made with experimental data on pp, γ proton and γγ total cross-sections. PACS numbers: 12.38.–t, 13.60.Hb, 13.85.Lg

Hadronic Total Cross-sections Through Soft Gluon Summation in Impact Parameter Space
The Bloch-Nordsieck model for the parton distribution of hadrons in impact parameter space, constructed using soft gluon summation, is investigated in detail. Its dependence upon the infrared structure of the strong coupling constant αs is discussed, both for finite as well as singular, but integrable, αs. The formalism is applied to the prediction of total proton-proton and proton-antiproton c...

An impact parameter representation for soft gluon radiation has been developed to obtain both the initial decrease in pp as well as the subsequent rise of the total cross section tot for pp and p p The rapid rise from the perturbative jets is tamed into the experimentally observed mild increase by soft gluon emission Here we focus on the role played by con nement in particular the need for a si...
متن کاملMini-jet Total Cross-sections and Overlap Functions through Bloch-Nordsieck Summation
Predictions for total inelastic cross-sections for photon induced processes are discussed in the context of the QCD-inspired minijet model. Large theoretical uncertainties exist, some of them related to the parton distributions of hadrons in impact parameter space. A model for such distribution is presented, based on soft gluon summation. This model incorporates (the salient features of distrib...
متن کاملTotal cross-section at LHC from minijets and soft gluon resummation in the infrared region
A model for total cross-sections incorporating QCD jet cross-sections and soft gluon resummation is described and compared with present data on pp and ¯ pp cross-sections. Predictions for LHC are presented for different parameter sets. It is shown that they differ according to the small x-behaviour of available parton density functions.
