Conformal Pomeron and Odderon in Strong Coupling (1312.1419v1)
Published 5 Dec 2013 in hep-ph and hep-th
Abstract: We discuss how exact conformal invariance in the strong coupling leads naturally through AdS/CFT correspondence to a systematic expansion for the Pomeron and Odderon intercepts in power of $\lambda{-1/2}$, with $\lambda=g2N_c$ the 't Hooft coupling. We also point out the importance of confinement for a realistic treatment of DIS in the HERA energy range.
