An approach to the leading Regge pole

arXiv:2002.12091 · doi:10.1088/1402-4896/ab7aab

Abstract

Neglecting spin effects, one introduces here a subtle approximation for the scattering angle, which allows the obtaining of a logarithmic leading Regge pole, consistent with the Froissart-Martin bound. A simple parameterization is also introduced for the proton-proton total cross section. Fitting procedures are implemented only for the highest energy experimental data available. The intercept for a linear approach is obtained, indicating the presence of a soft pomeron. The Tsallis entropy in the impact parameter space is calculated using the Regge pole formalism. This entropy depends on a free parameter, whose value implies the existence of a central or non-central maximum value for the entropy. The hollowness effect is discussed in terms of this parameter.
