The measurements of proton-proton elastic scattering for large momentum transfer at energies in the range $\approx$ 20 to 60 GeV show a simple behaviour of form $d \sigma/dt \approx {\rm const}~|t|^{-8}$, apparently with no energy…
Employing a recently-developed dispersive optical model (DOM) which allows a complete description of experimental data both above (up to 200 MeV) and below the Fermi energy in $^{40}$Ca, we demonstrate that elastic nucleon-nucleus…
We present the results of several parametrizations to two different ensemble of data on $pp$ total cross sections $\sigma_{tot}^{pp}$ at the highest center-of-mass energies (including cosmic-ray information). The results are statistically…

We examine a suggestion to use ${p-} ^4{He}$ elastic scattering, as an absolute polarimeter for high-energy polarized proton beams, by means of a Coulomb-Nuclear Interference effect for the single-spin asymmetry $A_N(t)$, around the…
The pseudorapidity density of charged particles dN(ch)/deta is measured by the TOTEM experiment in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV within the range 3.9 < eta < 4.7 and -6.95 < eta < -6.9. Data were collected in a low intensity LHC run with…
The proton-proton elastic differential cross section ${\rm d}\sigma/{\rm d}t$ has been measured by the TOTEM experiment at $\sqrt{s}=2.76$ TeV energy with $\beta^{*}=11$ m beam optics. The Roman Pots were inserted to 13 times the transverse…
In this paper we consider the soft processes at LHC energies in the framework of the Constituent Quark Model (CQM). We show that this rather naive model is able to describe all available soft data at lower energies and to predict the…
Recent measurements of the proton-proton total cross section $\sigma_{tot}$ at 7 and 8 TeV by the TOTEM and ATLAS Collaborations are characterized by some discrepant values: the TOTEM data suggest a rise of the cross section with the energy…

High energy elastic pp differential cross section at LHC at the c.m. energy 14 TeV is predicted using the asymptotic behavior of sigma-tot(s) and rho(s), and the measured pbar-p differential cross section at sqrt{s}=546 GeV. The…
