| contents | Correlations Between Total Cross Sections and Slopes M. J. Menon A. F. Martini J. Montanha Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas We investigate correlations between the total cross section and the slope of the elastic differential cross sectionfor proton-proton and antiproton-proton scattering at the highest energies. Based on the empirical behavior ofthese quantities as function of the energy, we select two different analytical parametrizations connecting them,and obtain the correlations through fits to the experimental data available. We present and discuss practicaluses of extrapolations and interpolations of the results. In the former case we refer to the estimation of theproton-proton total cross sections from the proton-air cross sections (obtained from cosmic-ray experiments),and in the later case, we critically discuss the recent measurement of the slope parameter at the BNL RHIC at200 GeV by the pp2pp Collaboration. 2004 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46400123 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.1A Vol.34 |
