Power Corrections in Eikonal Cross Sections
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss power corrections associated with the infrared behavior of the perturbative running coupling in the eikonal approximation to Drell-Yan and other annihilation cross sections in hadron-hadron scattering. General properties of the eikonal approximation imply that only even powers of the energy scale are necessary.

Dissociation of Relativistic Projectiles with the Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels Method
Relativistic effects in the breakup of weakly-bound nuclei at intermediate energies are studied by means of the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method with eikonal approximation. Nuclear coupling potentials with Lorentz contraction are newly included and those effects on breakup cross sections are investigated. We show that relativistic corrections lead to larger breakup cross sections. ...
متن کاملEikonal evolution and gluon radiation
We give a simple quantum mechanical formulation of the eikonal propagation approximation, which has been heavily used in recent years in problems involving hadronic interactions at high energy. This provides a unified framework for several approaches existing in the literature. We illustrate this scheme by calculating the total, elastic, inelastic and diffractive DIS cross sections, as well as ...
متن کاملFragmentation and Energy Conservation - Ci in the Eikonal - Regge Model
We have studied the effect of fragmentation and energy conservation in the Eikonal-Regge model. A generalized eikonal representation involving multiimpact-parameters is given for the elastic and inelastic amplitudes when fragmentation takes place. The generalized eikonal function depends on more than one impact parameter which describes a many-body potential. In the strong absorption model and ...
متن کاملStatus of Eikonal Two-Loop Calculations with Massive Quarks
The calculation of threshold corrections to hard scattering cross sections beyond leading logarithms requires the calculation of loop diagrams in the eikonal approximation [1]. One-loop calculations have been performed for all 2 → 2 partonic processes in heavy quark [2] and jet [3] production. The soft anomalous dimension matrix ΓS at one-loop allows the resummation of soft-gluon corrections at...
متن کاملResummation and power corrections for factorized cross sections‡
Threshold resummation for factorizable cross sections in hadron-hadron collisions has a number of applications and extensions. We discuss factorization scale dependence, resummation at nonleading power in the moment variable, and the implications of resummation for power corrections in the hard momentum scale. ‡ Talk presented at the “International Europhysics Conference on High Energy Physics”...
