Numerical predictions for the global characteristics of proton-proton interactions are given for the LHC energy. Possibilities for the discovery of the antishadow scattering mode and its physical implications are discussed.
In the rest frame of the nucleus, shadowing is due to hadronic fluctuations of the incoming virtual photon, which interact with the nucleons. We expand these fluctuations in a basis of eigenstates of interaction and take only the $q\bar q$…
