High energy scattering in QCD as a statistical process
S. Munier (Ecole Polytechnique and Florence University)🇫🇷
Abstract
The scattering of two hadronic objects at high energy is similar to a reaction-diffusion process described by the stochastic Fisher-Kolmogorov equation. This basic observation enables us to derive universal properties of the scattering amplitudes in a straightforward way, by borrowing some general results from statistical physics.
