Gluon emission at small longitudinal momenta in the QCD effective action approach

In the framework of the QCD effective action the vertices of gluon emission in interaction of reggeons are studied in the limit of small longitudinal momenta of the emitted gluon. It is found that the vertices drastically simplify in this limit so that the gluon becomes emitted from a single reggeon coupled to the projectile and target via multireggeon vertices. Contribution from this kinematical region is studied for double and 2x2 elementary collisions inside the composite projectile and target.Comment: 20 pages, 13 figures; to be published in Eur.Phys.Jour.

Diffractive scattering on the deuteron projectile in the NLO: triple interaction of reggeized gluons

High-mass diffractive production of protons on the deuteron target is studied in the next-to-leading order (NLO) of the perturbative QCD in the BFKL approach. The non-trivial part of the NLO contributions coming from the triple interactions of the exchanged reggeons is considered. Analytic formulas are presented and shown to be infrared free and so ready for practical calculation.Comment: 28 pages, 2 figures; to be published in Eur.Phys.Jour.

Origin of the second coherent peak in the dynamical structure factor of an asymmetric spin-ladder

Appearance of the second coherent peak in the dynamical structure factor of an asymmetric spin ladder is suggested. The general arguments are confirmed by the first order (with respect to the asymmetry) calculation for a spin ladder with singlet-rung ground state. Basing on this result a new interpretation is proposed for the inelastic neutron scattering data in the spin gap compound CuHpCl.Comment: 11 page

Gluon production on two centers and the effective action approach

Application of the effective action formalism is studied for processes in which the reggeons may split. It is shown that the gluon production on two centers is described by the contribution of the Reggeon-to-two-Reggeons-plus-Particle vertex supplemented by certain singular contributions from the double gluon exchange. The rules for longitudinal integrations are established from the comparison to perturbative QCD amplitude. Convenient expressions for application to the inclusive gluon production are derived.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figures; some misprints corrected; submitted to Eur.Phys.Jour.

On the application of the effective action approach to amplitudes with reggeon splitting

Application of the effective action approach to amplitudes with loop integration is studied for collisions on two and three centers with possible gluon emission. A rule is formulated for the integration around pole singularities in the induced vertices which brings the results in agreement with the QCD. It is demonstrated that the amplitudes can be restored from the purely transverse picture by introducing the standard Feynman propagators for intermediate gluons and quarks.Comment: 16 pages, 9 figures; submitted to Eur.Phys.Jour.

Local one-dimensional reggeon model of the interaction of pomerons and odderons

We propose the one-dimensional reggeon theory describing local pomerons and odderons. It generalizes the well-known one-dimensional theory of pomerons (the Gribov model) and includes only triple interaction vertices. The proposed theory is studied by numerical methods: the one-particle pomeron and odderon propagators and the pA amplitude are found as functions of rapidity by integrating the evolution equation.Comment: 19 pages, 11 figures; submitted to Eur.Phys.Jour.

Production of a gluon with the exchange of three reggeized gluons in the Lipatov effective action approach

In the Regge kinematics the amplitude for gluon production off three scattering centers is found in the Lipatov effective action technique. The vertex for gluon emission with the reggeon splitting in three reggeons is calculated and its transversality is demonstrated. It is shown that in the sum of all contributions terms containing principal value singularities are cancelled and substituted by the standard Feynman poles. These results may be used for calculation of the inclusive cross-section for gluon production on two nucleons in the nucleus.Comment: 22 pages, 9 figures; submitted to Eur.Phys.Jour.

On the inclusive gluon production in the Lipatov effective action formalism

The process of gluon production in quark-nucleus collisions is studied in the framework of Lipatov's effective action formalism. The relevant simplifications and rules for longitudinal integrations are discussed in detail. The results obtained with the help of these rules correspond to the purely transversal formalism based on effective vertices in the transversal space.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figures; some references added; to be published in Eur.Phys.Jour.
