Summary

The talk will summarise measurements of the total inelastic proton-proton cross-section and charged particle distributions by ATLAS and CMS at 13 TeV. These measurements provide necessary inputs to non-perturbative models of soft QCD, and the transition region between non-perturbative and perturbative calculations. The results are compared to popular Monte-Carlo generators in collider, and cosmic shower physics.
