Abstract
We study the high energy behaviour of elastic scattering amplitudes wi thin the leading logarithm approximation. In particular, we cast the a mplitude in a form which allows us to study the internal dynamics of t he BFKL Pomeron for general momentum transfer. We demonstrate that the momentum transfer acts as an effective infrared cut-off which ensures that the dominant contribution arises from short distance physics.
