odderon  

Définition

  • In particle physics, the odderon corresponds to an elusive family of odd-gluon states, dominated by a three-gluon state. When protons collide elastically with protons or with anti-protons at high energies, even or odd numbers of gluons are exchanged. Exchanging an even number of gluons is a crossing-even part of elastic proton–proton and proton–antiproton scattering, while odderon exchange, i.e. exchange of odd number of gluons, corresponds to a crossing-odd term in the elastic scattering amplitude. It took about 48 years to find a definite signal of odderon exchange. (Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odderon)
