Proton-Proton Total Cross-Sections from the Window of Cosmic Ray Experiments

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v3 Astrophysics

Abstract

The importance of cosmic-ray experimental measurements of proton-proton total cross sections to understand the underlying fundamental dynamics is discussed. It is shown that early discovered global structure of proton-proton total cross section [5,17] is completely compatible with the values obtained from cosmic-ray experiments.
