Charge-odd correlation of lepton and pion pair production in electron-proton scattering

Charge-odd correlation of the charged pair components produced at electron-proton scattering can measure three current correlation averaged by proton state. In general these type correlation can be described by 14 structure functions. We restrict here by consideration of inclusive distributions of a pair components, which is the light-cone projection of the relevant hadronic tensor. Besides we consider the point-like approximation for proton and pion. Numerical estimations show that charge-odd effects can be measured in exclusive ep -> 2 pi X experiments.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure

Bremsstrahlung and pair production processes at low energies, multi-differential cross section and polarization phenomena

Radiative electron-proton scattering is studied in peripheral kinematics, where the scattered electron and photon move close to the direction of the initial electron. Even in the case of unpolarized initial electron the photon may have a definite polarization. The differential cross sections with longitudinally or transversal polarized initial electron are calculated. The same phenomena are considered for the production of an electron-positron pair by the photon, where the final positron (electron) can be also polarized. Differential distributions for the case of polarized initial photon are given. Both cases of unscreened and completely screened atomic targets are considered.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figure

Soft gluon radiation and energy dependence of total hadronic cross-sections

An impact parameter representation for soft gluon radiation is applied to obtain both the initial decrease of the total cross-section ($\sigma_{tot}$) for proton-proton collisions as well as the later rise of $\sigma_{tot}$ with energy for both $pp$ and $p\bar{p}$. The non-perturbative soft part of the eikonal includes only limited low energy gluon emission and leads to the initial decrease in the proton-proton cross- section. On the other hand, the rapid rise in the hard, perturbative jet part of the eikonal is tamed into the experimentally observed mild increase by soft gluon radiation whose maximum energy rises slowly with energy.Comment: 30 pages, 6 figures.

A model of a transition neutral pion formfactor measured in annihilation and scattering channels

We consider an alternative explanation of newly found growth of neutral pion transition form factor with virtuality of one of photon. It is based on Sudakov suppression of quark-photon vertex. Some applications to scattering and annihilation channels are considered including the relevant experiments with lepton-proton scattering.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figur

Off-shell scattering amplitudes in the double-logarithmic approximation

When scattering amplitudes are calculated in the double-logarithmic approximation, it is possible to relate the double-logarithmic on-shell and off-shell amplitudes. Explicit relations are obtained for scattering amplitudes in QED, QCD, and the ElectroWeak Standard Model. The off-shell amplitudes are considered in the hard and the Regge kinematic limits. We compare our results in both the Feynman and Coulomb gauges.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures; RevTeX

Parquet solution for a flat Fermi surface

We study instabilities occurring in the electron system whose Fermi surface has flat regions on its opposite sides. Such a Fermi surface resembles Fermi surfaces of some high-$T_c$ superconductors. In the framework of the parquet approximation, we classify possible instabilities and derive renormalization-group equations that determine the evolution of corresponding susceptibilities with decreasing temperature. Numerical solutions of the parquet equations are found to be in qualitative agreement with a ladder approximation. For the repulsive Hubbard interaction, the antiferromagnetic (spin-density-wave) instability dominates, but when the Fermi surface is not perfectly flat, the $d$-wave superconducting instability takes over.Comment: REVTeX, 36 pages, 20 ps figures inserted via psfig.

Resummation of double logarithms in electroweak high energy processes

At future linear $e^+e^-$ collider experiments in the TeV range, Sudakov double logarithms originating from massive boson exchange can lead to significant corrections to the cross sections of the observable processes. These effects are important for the high precision objectives of the Next Linear Collider. We use the infrared evolution equation, based on a gauge invariant dispersive method, to obtain double logarithmic asymptotics of scattering amplitudes and discuss how it can be applied, in the case of broken gauge symmetry, to the Standard Model of electroweak processes. We discuss the double logarithmic effects to both non-radiative processes and to processes accompanied by soft gauge boson emission. In all cases the Sudakov double logarithms are found to exponentiate. We also discuss double logarithmic effects of a non-Sudakov type which appear in Regge-like processes.Comment: 26 pages, 3 figures, Latex2

Diffractive Production of bbˉb \bar b in Proton - Antiproton Collision at the Tevatron

We show that the cross section of the diffractive production of $b \bar b$ can be described as the sum of two contributions: the first is proportional to the probability of finding a small size $b \bar b$ color dipole in the fast hadron wave function before the interaction with a target, while the second is the $b \bar b$-production after or during the interaction with the target. The formulae are presented as well as the discussion of the interralation between these two contributions and the Ingelman- Schlein and coherent diffraction mechanisms. The main precdition is that the coherent diffraction mechanism dominates at least at the Tevatron Energies, giving the unique possibility to study it experimentally.Comment: 23 pages, 10 figures, latex fil

Acute myocardial ischemia: changes of free circulating mtDNA level in blood after occlusion of the upper one-third left descending branch of the coronary artery

The aim of the present study is to analyze the dynamics of free circulating mtDNA level in blood after occlusion of the upper one-third left descending branch of the coronary artery. We showed that the concentration of free circulating mtDNA of blood tends to decrease 24 hours after ligation; it increased and reached values close to control samples 48 and 72 hours after ligation. These data define the need in further investigation of the dynamics of this parameter during later periods of myocardial infarction modeling that will contribute to objective evaluation of its significance for acute myocardial damage diagnostics and prognosis
