Should the pomeron and imaginary parts be modelled by two gluons and real quarks?

Büttner, K, Pennington, Michael R

Abstract

We illustrate that solution of the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the gluon propagator in QCD does not support an infrared softened behaviour, but only an infrared enhancement. This has consequences for the modelling of the Pomeron in terms of dressed gluon exchange. It highlights that an understanding of the Pomeron within QCD must take account of the bound state nature of hadrons.
