On "soft" physics at the CERN Large Hadron Collider

Abstract

Three tightly inter-related topics have been discussed: the $pp(p\bar{p})$ total cross section; the single diffraction dissociation cross section; the $p(\bar{p})d$ total cross section and the defect of the total cross section in scattering from deuteron.
