New study finds way to restore factorization in hard scattering processes.
The article discusses how factorization and universality can be partially restored in hadronic hard scattering processes by considering interactions with specific characteristics. By focusing on interactions with a narrow and regular peak in their frequency spectrum, an approximate factorization involving certain contributions can be achieved. This finding suggests that factorization and universality can be maintained in the presence of factorization breaking interactions under certain conditions.
