Abstract

In a Regge-type treatment of Fermion-boson reactions, backward angle differential cross sections are dominated by complex conjugate pairs of u-channel Regge trajectories (this is true for spins ½ and 0 or 1, and probably in general). It is demonstrated here that generally, these differential cross sections and associated final-state polarizations will not exhibit oscillatory behavior as a function of u and s, in spite of interferences between the poles of such complex conjugate pairs. This result is in agreement with previous findings in the special case of πN scattering.
