Measurement of the inelastic proton–proton cross section at s=7 TeV

A measurement is presented of the inelastic proton–proton cross section at a centre-of-mass energy of s=7 TeV. Using the CMS detector at the LHC, the inelastic cross section is measured through two independent methods based on information from (i) forward calorimetry (for pseudorapidity 3
