Regge behavior of spontaneously broken non-Abelian gauge theory. II

Abstract
We extend our previous discussion of the high-energy, fixed-momentum-transfer behavior of spontaneously broken non-Abelian gauge theories to those with an SU(N) gauge group. As in the case of SU(2), all amplitudes can be described in terms of the exchange of the gauge-meson Regge trajectory plus associated cuts generated by Reggeon field theory. In the weak-coupling approximation only the Regge pole and the two-Reggeon cut enter. In this approximation the leading J-plane singularity in the vacuum channel is a fixed branch point to the right of J=1.
