Abstract

The two-component structure of the so-called pomeron has been investigated in previous papers (1,2). The hypothesis that any seatterings occur by way of hadronhadron to reggeon-reggeon processes is assumed. The contribution of the various inelastic collisions to the forward elastic amplitude through the unitarity relation has been studied with reference to the quark line diagrams. At wo-component structure similar to Lipkin's (3) has been found for pomeron contribution in the total cross-section. The components of the pomeron have been estimated from ~J~, K~ and J~J~ totalcross-section data at an incident momentum ranging from 35 to 200 GeV/e (~). The first component a~ increases slowly with energy, while the second one a s decreases slowly. The least-square fits have been performed with the following functions: (IA) a(logpT. ~- b) , (IA') a(1ogpL + b) 2 -b e , (IB) a -- bp'~ c for al,
