High-energy proton-proton forward scattering and derivative analyticity relations

We present the results of several parametrizations to two different ensemble of data on pp total cross sections (s) at the highest center-of-mass energies (including cosmic-ray information). The results are statistically consistent with two distinct scenarios at high energies. From one ensemble the prediction for the LHC ( = 14 TeV) iss = 113 ± 5 mb and from the other, s Texto completo
