Measurement of the Total Proton-Proton Cross Section at the ISR
Phys. Lett. 44B (1973) 119;

Abstracts
We present the first result of measurement of the total cross section T in proton-proton collisions at equivalent laboratory momenta between 291 and 1480 GeV/c at the CERN Intersecting Storage Ring (ISR). The method is based on the measurement of the ratio of the total interaction rate and the machine luminosity. The data show an increase of about 10% in T in this energy interval.
