Description
It has been shown that AdS/CFT calculations can reproduce certain
exclusive 2-to- 2 cross sections in QCD at high energy, both for near-
forward and for fixed-angle scattering. We extend prior treatments by
using AdS/CFT to calculate both the exclusive and inclusive central
production cross section in QCD at high center-of- mass energy. We
explore consequence of conformal invariance, and discuss how the
notion of ``graviton” enters into diffraction scattering, thus providing a
unified framework in interpreting some aspects of high-energy
scattering at LHC.
