The fine structure of the Pomeron and the the slope parameter of the diffraction peak
Abstract
The j plane structure of the vertex function of the Pomeron suggested by the two-pole multiperipheral model exhibits a fine structure which depends on the triple Pomeron coupling. It is found that this structure alone may explain the energy dependence of the slope parameter of the p-p diffraction peak even with an arbitrarily small slope of the Pomeranchuk trajectory.
