Abstract

The Real Extended Bialas-Bzdak (ReBB) model study is extended to the 8 TeV pppp TOTEM elastic differential cross section data. The analysis shows that the ReBB model describes the pppp and ppˉp\bar{p} differential cross section data in the limited 0.37t1.20.37 \leq -t \leq 1.2 GeV2^2 and 1.96s81.96 \leq \sqrt{s} \leq 8 TeV kinematic region, in a statistically acceptable manner. In this kinematic region a greater than 30 σ\sigma model-dependent Odderon signal is observed by comparing the pppp and ReBB extrapolated ppˉp\bar{p} differential cross sections. Thus, in practical terms, within the framework of the ReBB model, Odderon exchange is not a probability, but a certainty.
