High-energy hadron dynamics based on a stochastic-field multieikonal theory
Multieikonal theory, using a stochastic-field representation for collective long-range rapidity correlations, is developed and applied to the calculation of Regge-pole parameters, high-transverse-momentum enhancements, and fluctuation patterns in rapidity densities. If a short-range-order model, such as the one-dimensional planar bootstrap, with only leading t-channel meson poles, is utilized as input to the multieikonal method, the pole spectrum is modified in three ways: promotion and renormalization of leading trajectories (suggesting an effective Pomeron above unity at intermediate energies), and a proliferation of dynamical secondary trajectories, reminiscent of dual models. When transverse dimensions are included, the collective effects produce a growth with energy of large-P/sub T/ inclusive cross sections. Typical-event rapidity distributions, at energies of a few TeV, can be estimated by suitable approximations; the fluctuations give rise to ''domain'' patterns, which have the appearance of clusters separated by rapidity gaps. The relations between this approach to strong-interaction dynamics and a possible unification of weak, electromagnetic, and strong interactions are outlined.
