Characterisation of the dip-bump structure observed in proton–proton elastic scattering at s = 8 TeV

The TOTEM collaboration at the CERN LHC has measured the differential cross-section of elastic proton–proton scattering at s = 8 TeV in the squared four-momentum transfer range 0.2 GeV 2 < | t | < 1.9 GeV 2 . This interval includes the structure with a diffractive minimum (“dip”) and a seconda...

Zusammenfassung:	The TOTEM collaboration at the CERN LHC has measured the differential cross-section of elastic proton–proton scattering at s = 8 TeV in the squared four-momentum transfer range 0.2 GeV 2 < \| t \| < 1.9 GeV 2 . This interval includes the structure with a diffractive minimum (“dip”) and a secondary maximum (“bump”) that has also been observed at all other LHC energies, where measurements were made. A detailed characterisation of this structure for s = 8 TeV yields the positions, \| t \| dip = ( 0.521 ± 0.007 ) GeV 2 and \| t \| bump = ( 0.695 ± 0.026 ) GeV 2 , as well as the cross-section values, d σ / d t dip = ( 15.1 ± 2.5 ) μ b / GeV 2 and d σ / d t bump = ( 29.7 ± 1.8 ) μ b / GeV 2 , for the dip and the bump, respectively.
