Dual unitarization scheme with several trajectories

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
Consequences of bootstrap with several input Regge trajectories are investigated. We find that in a general (without the duality-diagrams constraints) treatment of bootstrap, consistency requires the intercept of the output Pomeron pole in the one-dimensional case to be larger than one: ..cap alpha../sub P/(0) > 1, a situation reminiscent of the one in Reggeon field theory. Symmetry breakings of the Pomeron couplings are discussed. These couplings coincide with those of the f-dominated Pomeron model of Carlitz, Green, and Zee (CGZ). The case when in the unitarity loops all possible trajectories are exchanged is also considered. Predictions of the dual unitary model for the slopes of differential cross sections for diffractive scattering are made which differ from those of the CGZ model. A comparison with the experimentally available data is performed.
