    Book description

    This volume describes the Pomeron, an object of crucial importance in very high energy particle physics. The book starts with a general description of the Pomeron within the framework of Regge theory. The emergence of the Pomeron within scalar field theory is discussed next, providing a natural foundation on which to develop the more realistic case of QCD. The reggeization of the gluon is demonstrated and used to build the Pomeron of perturbative QCD. The dynamical nature of the Pomeron is then investigated. The role of the Pomeron in small-x deep inelastic scattering and in diffractive scattering is also examined in detail. The volume concludes with a study of the colour dipole approach to high energy scattering and the explicit role of unitarity corrections. This book will be of interest to theoretical and experimental particle physicists, and applied mathematicians.

    Reviews

    "...this book fills a void by offering a readable introduction that would be suitable as a jumping-off point for a high-energy theory student interested in entering this lively field of research. It may also be useful to interested researchers in other subfields of high-energy physics and to experimentalist graduate students." Carl R. Schmidt, Physics Today
