Abstract:
A detailed analysis of the existence of high energy secondary diffractive dips and structures in the extrapolations of the fits to the data is given. The existence of these dips and a fortiori their position is found to be rather model-dependent: present in all eikonalized models including Pomeron, Odderon and secondary Reggeons they disappear when an additional large- t term is added (as sometimes advocated).
