Leading components in forward elastic hadron scattering: Derivative dispersion relations and asymptotic uniqueness
D. A. Fagundes, M. J. Menon, P. V. R. G. Silva
Forward amplitude analyses constitute an important approach in the investigation of the energy dependence of the total hadronic cross-section and the parameter. The s…
Bounds on the rise of total cross section from LHC7 and LHC8 data
D. A. Fagundes, M. J. Menon, P. V. R. G. Silva
Recent measurements of the proton-proton total cross section at 7 and 8 TeV by the TOTEM and ATLAS Collaborations are characterized by some discrepant values: the TOTEM d…
Fine structure of the diffraction cone: from ISR to the LHC
D. A. Fagundes, L. Jenkovszky, E. Q. Miranda +2
Following earlier findings, we argue that the low- structure in the elastic diffractive cone, recently reported by the TOTEM Collaboration at TeV, is a consequence of the…
Exploring central opacity and asymptotic scenarios in elastic hadron scattering
D. A. Fagundes, M. J. Menon, P. V. R. G. Silva
In the absence of a global description of the experimental data on elastic and soft diffractive scattering from the first principles of QCD, model-independent analyses may provide…
Updating an empirical analysis on the proton's central opacity and asymptotia
D. A. Fagundes, M. J. Menon, P. V. R. G. Silva
We present an updated empirical analysis on the ratio of the elastic (integrated) to the total cross section in the c.m. energy interval from 5 GeV to 8 TeV. As in a previous work,…
Asymptotic Scenarios for the Proton's Central Opacity: An Empirical Study
D. A. Fagundes, M. J. Menon, P. V. R. G. Silva
We present a model-independent analysis of the experimental data on the ratio between the elastic and total cross-sections from and scattering in the c.m. energ…
