Description

We present two measurements of cross sections using the data recorded at the Fermilab Tevatron collider with the forward proton spectrometer(s) of the D0 detector. First we discuss a measurement of the differential distribution dsigma/dt for the elastic cross section in the range 0.26<|t|<1.2 GeV^2. Next we discuss a measurement of the differential cross section for the single diffractive process in a similar range of |t|.
