Abstract

Based upon the invariance of SU(2)SU(2) and SU(3)SU(3) for asymptotic momenta, we first derive constraints on certain strong and electromagnetic exclusive scattering processes, where all the hadrons are viewed as fundamental fields. Then we consider asymptotic SU(3)SU(3) for meson-meson and baryon-baryon fixed-angle, elastic scattering in the Landshoff model, wherein the hadrons are viewed as bound states of quarks and antiquarks. We find that the part of the pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar scattering amplitude which is a function of the center-of-mass scattering angle only is just the average of the analogous functions of the scattering angle for the independent nonzero helicity amplitudes for vector-vector scattering. Finally, in the case of baryon-baryon scattering we find that total baryon helicity is conserved.
