Description

The impact of nonlinear interaction effects on the total proton-proton cross section is studied. In particular, the relative roles of the perturbative and nonperturbative parton splitting mechanisms are investigated. Additionally, the importance of dynamical higher twist corrections to parton production processes is demonstrated.
