On Asymptotic Universality of Strong Interactions at Large Distances

TL;DR

This paper generalizes the Pomeranchuk theorem, suggesting that at high energies, differences in elastic cross-sections across channels diminish, indicating a universal energy dependence of strong interactions at large distances.

Contribution

It introduces a generalized theorem predicting universal energy dependence of elastic cross-sections at high energies, extending previous understanding of strong interactions.

Findings

Elastic cross-section differences vanish at high energies.

Supports universality in strong interactions at large distances.

Provides theoretical foundation for future experimental tests.

Abstract

We propose a generalisation of the Pomeranchuk theorem which argues that elastic cross-sections should show a universal energy dependence: difference of integrated elastic cross-sections of any pair of initial channels has to disappear at high enough energy
