Elastic cross sections for high energy hadron-hadron scattering
arXiv:hep-ph/9811306 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(99)00142-5
Abstract
This report discusses some results on differential cross sections for high energy and small momentum transfer elastic hadron-hadron scattering in QCD, using a functional integral approach. In particulary a matrix cumulant expansion for the vacuum expectation values of lightlike Wegner-Wilson loops, which governs the hadronic amplitudes, is presented. The cumulants are evaluated using the model of the stochastic vacuum.
