  • And Photon-Induced Processes at the LHC 1 Introduction
    Higgs and new physics in Pomeron- and photon-induced processes at the LHC David d'Enterria Laboratory for Nuclear Science, MIT, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307, USA ICC-UB & ICREA, Universitat de Barcelona, 08028 Barcelona, Catalonia 1 Introduction The primary goal of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the production of new particles predicted within or beyond the Standard Model (SM): Higgs boson, super- symmetric (SUSY) partners of the SM particles ... By colliding \head-on" protons at multi-TeV energies, one expects to produce new heavy particles in the under- lying high-pT parton-parton scatterings. Such collisions are characterised by large QCD activity and backgrounds which often complicate the identification of novel physics signals. In this context, the clean topologies of exclusive particle production in \peripheral" p p processes mediated by colourless exchanges { such as di-gluon colour-singlet states (aka \Pomerons") or two photons (Fig. 1, left) { is attracting increasing interest despite their much smaller cross sections, O(10−5) less, compared to the standard parton-parton interactions. Exclusive events are characterised by wide rapidity gaps (i.e. a large regions devoid of hadronic activity) on both sides of the centrally produced system and the survival of both protons scattered at very low angles with respect to the beam. The final-state is thus much cleaner, with a larger signal/background and the event kinematics can be constrained measuring the final protons. A prime process of interest at the LHC is the Central Exclusive Production (CEP) of the Higgs boson, pp p H p, (` ' represents a rapidity-gap).

  • An Analysis on Single and Central Diffractive Heavy Flavour Production at Hadron Colliders
    416 Brazilian Journal of Physics, vol. 38, no. 3B, September, 2008 An Analysis on Single and Central Diffractive Heavy Flavour Production at Hadron Colliders M. V. T. Machado Universidade Federal do Pampa, Centro de Cienciasˆ Exatas e Tecnologicas´ Campus de Bage,´ Rua Carlos Barbosa, CEP 96400-970, Bage,´ RS, Brazil (Received on 20 March, 2008) In this contribution results from a phenomenological analysis for the diffractive hadroproduction of heavy flavors at high energies are reported. Diffractive production of charm, bottom and top are calculated using the Regge factorization, taking into account recent experimental determination of the diffractive parton density functions in Pomeron by the H1 Collaboration at DESY-HERA. In addition, multiple-Pomeron corrections are considered through the rapidity gap survival probability factor. We give numerical predictions for single diffrac- tive as well as double Pomeron exchange (DPE) cross sections, which agree with the available data for diffractive production of charm and beauty. We make estimates which could be compared to future measurements at the LHC. Keywords: Heavy flavour production; Pomeron physics; Single diffraction; Quantum Chromodynamics 1.

Schwarz California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA and Caltech-USC Center for Theoretical Physics University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089, USA Abstract The string theory introduced in early 1971 by Ramond, Neveu, and myself has two-dimensional world-sheet supersymmetry. This theory, developed at about the same time that Golfand and Likhtman constructed the four-dimensional super-Poincar´ealgebra, motivated Wess and Zumino to construct supersymmet- ric field theories in four dimensions. Gliozzi, Scherk, and Olive conjectured the arXiv:hep-th/0011078v1 9 Nov 2000 spacetime supersymmetry of the string theory in 1976, a fact that was proved five years later by Green and myself. Presented at the Conference 30 Years of Supersymmetry 1Work supported in part by the U.S. Dept. of Energy under Grant No. DE-FG03-92-ER40701. 1 S-Matrix Theory, Duality, and the Bootstrap In the late 1960s there were two parallel trends in particle physics. On the one hand, many hadron resonances were discovered, making it quite clear that hadrons are not elementary particles. In fact, they were found, to good approximation, to lie on linear parallel Regge trajectories, which supported the notion that they are composite. Moreover, high energy scattering data displayed Regge asymptotic behavior that could be explained by the extrap- olation of the same Regge trajectories, as well as one with vacuum quantum numbers called the Pomeron. This set of developments was the focus of the S-Matrix Theory community of theorists.

We give prediction for the cross-section of this process for LEP2 and TESLA energies. We solve the BFKL equation in the non-forward configuration taking into account dominant non-leading effects which come from the requirement that the virtuality of the exchanged gluons along the gluon ladder is controlled by their transverse momentum squared. We compare our results with those corresponding to the simple two gluon exchange mechanism and with the BFKL pomeron exchange in the leading logarithmic approximation. The BFKL effects are found to generate a steeper t-dependence than the two gluon exchange. The cross-section is found to increase with increasing CM energy W as (W2)2X. The parameter A is slowly varying with W and takes the values A ~ 0.23 — 0.28.

  • Pomeron in the N=4 Supersymmetric Gauge Model at Strong Couplings

Introduction 2. Results 3. Conclusions. The BFKL Pomeron intercept at =4 super-symmetric gauge N theory in the form of the inverse coupling expansion j =2 2λ 1/2 λ 1 +1/4 λ 3/2 +2(1+3ζ )λ 2 + O(λ 5/2) 0 − − − − − 3 − − is found with the use of the AdS/CFT correspondence in terms of string energies calculated recently. Introduction Pomeron is the Regge singularity of the t-channel partial wave (G.F.Chew and S.C.Frautschi, 1961), (V.N.Gribov, 1962) responsible for the approximate equality of total cross-sections for high energy particle-particle and particle-antiparticle interactions valid in an accordance with the Pomeranchuck theorem (I.Ya.Pomeranchuk, 1958), (L.B.Okun and I.Ya.Pomeranchukand , 1956) In QCD the Pomeron is a colorless object, constructed from reggeized gluons (I.I.Balitsky, V.S.Fadin, E.A.Kuraev and L.N.Lipatov, 1975–1979) The investigation of the high energy behavior of scattering am- plitudes in the = 4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) model N (A.V.K., L.N.Lipatov, 2000, 2003) is important for our understand- ing of the Regge processes in QCD. Indeed, this conformal model can be considered as a simplified ver- sion of QCD, in which the next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections (V.S.Fadin and L.N.Lipatov, 1986) to the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev- Lipatov (BFKL) equation are comparatively simple and numerically small.

The two colliding beam experiments HI and ZEUS have been taking and analyzing the electron-proton scattering data at ener- gies up to y/s = 300 GeV since 1992.

  • Pomeron and Odderon: Saturation and Confinement and Gauge/String Duality
    Pomeron and Odderon: Saturation and Confinement and Gauge/String Duality Richard Brower1, Marko Drjruc2, Chung-I Tan3 1Physics Department, Boston University, Boston, MA 02215, USA. 2Physics Department, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA. 3Physics Department, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA. At high energies, elastic hadronic cross sections are believed to be dominated by vacuum exchange. In leading order of the leading 1=Nc expansion this exchange process has been identified as the BFKL Pomeron or its strong AdS dual the closed string graviton [1]. However difference of particle anti-particle cross sections are given by a so-called Odderon carrying C = -1 quantum numbers identified in weak coupling with odd numbers of exchanged gluons. Here we show that the dual description associates this with the Neveu-Schwartz (Bµν ) sector of closed string theory. Analysis of its strong coupling properties generalizes the AdS Pomeron of Ref [1] to this sector. We also consider eikonalization in AdS and discuss the effect due to confinement. We also discuss the extension of strong coupling treatment to central diffractive Higgs production at LHC. 1 Introduction The subject of near-forward high energy scattering for hadrons has a long history. The traditional description of high-energy small-angle scattering in QCD has two components | a soft Pomeron Regge pole associated with exchanging tensor glueballs, and a hard BFKL Pomeron at weak coupling. On the basis of gauge/string duality, a coherent treatment of the Pomeron was provided [1]. These results agree with expectations for the BFKL Pomeron at negative t, and with the expected glueball spectrum at positive t, but provide a framework in which they are unified [2].
