The Inelastic Cross-Section and Prospects for Elastic Measurements with ATLAS

A first measurement of the inelastic cross cross section of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is presented. The measurement is made using scintillators in the forward region of the ATLAS detector. Prospects for elastic measurements are...

Sumario:A first measurement of the inelastic cross cross section of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is presented. The measurement is made using scintillators in the forward region of the ATLAS detector. Prospects for elastic measurements are also discussed.
