Proton-proton total cross sections are measured with present day high energy colliders up to 2 TeV in the centre-of-mass of the system (10^{15}) eV in the laboratory). Several parameterizations, very succesful at low energies, can then be…

So far the only seemingly significant indication of a cosmological variation exists for the proton-to-electron mass ratio as stated by Reinhold et al. (2006). The measured indication of variation is based on the combined analysis of H2…
