Abstract
We consider a simple model for the propagator of a non-perturbative gl uon and derive the rules determining its coupling to perturbative gluo ns and quarks. With these rules, we evaluate the fourth and sixth-orde r amplitude for quark-quark scattering at high energies. In this frame work, numerical predictions are presented for high energy nucleon-nucl eon scattering and compared with experimental data.
