A new approach to analytic, non-perturbative, gauge-invariant QCD renormalization is described, with applications to high energy elastic pp-scattering

TL;DR

This paper introduces a novel non-perturbative, gauge-invariant QCD renormalization method applied to high energy elastic proton-proton scattering, successfully reproducing diffraction patterns observed experimentally.

Contribution

It presents a new gauge-invariant renormalization approach in QCD and applies it to model high energy elastic pp-scattering, capturing diffraction dips.

Findings

Differential cross-section shows diffraction dip similar to experimental data

Model reproduces key features of high energy elastic scattering

Comparison with ISR and LHC data is in progress

Abstract

A new non-perturbative, gauge-invariant model QCD renormalization is applied to high energy elastic pp-scattering. The differential cross-section deduced from this model displays a diffraction dip that resembles those of experiments. Comparison with ISR and LHC data is currently underway.
