# Two-Pomeron eikonal approximation for the high-energy EDS of nucleons

## TL;DR

This paper introduces a simple two-Pomeron Regge-eikonal model to accurately describe high-energy nucleon elastic diffractive scattering at energies above 540 GeV and low transferred momenta, including Coulomb interference.

## Contribution

It proposes a novel, simplified two-Pomeron eikonal approximation for high-energy nucleon scattering that effectively captures experimental data.

## Key findings

- Model accurately describes scattering data above 540 GeV
- Includes Coulomb-nuclear interference effects
- Validates the predictive power of the approximation

## Abstract

It is demonstrated that the elastic diffractive scattering of nucleons at collision energies higher than 540 GeV and transferred momenta lower than 2 GeV, including the Coulomb-nuclear interference region, can be described in the framework of a very simple Regge-eikonal model where the eikonal is just a sum of two supercritical Regge pole terms. The predictive value of the proposed approximation is verified.
