Coulomb and hadronic Scattering in Elastic High-energy Nucleon Collisions

V. Kundrát, M. Lokajíček Institute of Physics, AS CR, Praha, CR

1. IntroductionElastic nucleon collisions:

extensive and precise experimental data accurate analysis

mainly due to hadronic interactions at all t

charged hadrons: due to Coulomb interactions mainly at small |t|

influence of both interactions (spins neglected)

… Coulomb (QED), …. hadronic amplitudes

mutually bound by relative phase ,

West–Yennie (1968) (for large s )

• some approximations; adding dipole form factors simplified West-Yennie formula

with relative phase ,

• fitting differential cross section data

constant and averaged values of

what approximations used?

their contradictory character t independence of untenable

(V.K., M. Lokajíček, Phys. Lett. B 611 (2005) 102)

2. Fundamental limitations involved in West-Yennie general belief: no limitation of relative phase

phase should be real imaginary part of integral should be zero for

all t

quantity should be independent on t in the whole kinematically allowed region of t values!!!

for any t, t’ for any t, t’

(mentioned among assumptions in: Amaldi et al., Phys. Lett. B 43 (1973) 231)

under what assumptions simplified WY derived?

in addition to being constant: purely exponential t dependence of in the whole kinematically allowed region of t

integral from WY:

• high and

as

and

• small |t| can be neglected

are assumptions fulfilled by data ?are assumptions fulfilled by data ?
