Comparison of Gluon Bundle based QCD Curves with ISR Elastic pp Scattering Data

TL;DR

This paper uses non-perturbative, gauge-invariant QCD techniques to model elastic proton-proton scattering data, revealing Pomeron-like structures and fitting ISR experimental results, with plans to extend to LHC energies.

Contribution

Introduces a simplified, non-perturbative QCD amplitude framework that naturally incorporates Pomeron-like forms to fit elastic scattering data.

Findings

Successful fit to ISR elastic pp scattering data

Revealed Pomeron-like structures in the amplitude

Framework ready for extension to LHC energies

Abstract

Using previously described functional techniques for exact, non-perturbative, gauge-invariant renormalized QCD processes, a simplified version of the amplitudes - in which forms akin to Pomerons naturally appear - provides fits to ISR Elastic pp scattering data. Extension of this work to LHC reactions is presently underway.
