Hadronic Spectroscopy and Jet Dynamics via the Wolf-Toffoletto-Schutza (WTS) Action
Abstract
We present a non-perturbative analysis of the hadronic sector based on the Axiomatic Physical Home-ostasis (APH) framework. We replace the standard Nambu-Goto string approximation of color confinementwith the Wolf-Toffoletto-Schutza (WTS) Action, which incorporates the super-linear Geometric Stiff-ness of the G2 vacuum (βQCD ≈ 1.91). We derive the hadronic mass spectrum, confirming the scalar glueballmass at 1710 MeV and the non-linear Regge trajectory J ∝ M 1.52. Furthermore, we extend the WTS dy-namics to high-energy scattering, predicting a suppression of soft gluon radiation (transverse wetting) inparticle jets due to the “Weibull Viscosity” of the vacuum. This results in highly collimated “Pencil Jets”and a modification of the fragmentation function D(z) near the infrared cutoff.
