Description
The TOTEM collaboration at the LHC has completed its analysis of the elastic,
inelastic and total proton-proton cross-sections (via the optical
theorem) at sqrt(s) = 2.74 TeV. The new measurement lies close in energy
to the Tevatron's 1.8 TeV with its two slightly conflicting total
cross-section results.
The presentation will put the new measurement in the context of completed,
ongoing and future measurements at other energies. In particular, preliminary results on the elastic cross-section at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV will be shown.
