Abstract

We consider an inelastic scattering of protons within the simplest real scalar model ϕ3\phi^3 (phi-cubed). Although this model is being studied for a very long time, the problem of accounting for the interference contributions for all the possible particle multiplicities observed in experiment is not solved yet. We propose the method which is based on grouping of the interference contributions into sets in such a way that the sum of all interference contributions of each particular set can be calculated with Laplace's method. This approach allowed us to calculate all the interference contributions to the cross-sections for multiplicities up to n50 n\sim 50 at the energy s50 \sqrt{s} \sim 50 GeV. The obtained models of the energy dependence of total pppp scattering cross-section and the inclusive rapidity distribution are in qualitative agreement with the experiment. We also consider the well known effect of the energy dependence of the shape of inclusive rapidity distribution, and propose an explanation of this dependence and consider it exactly as the interference effect.
