Elastic proton-proton scattering at 13 TeV

Abstract

The predictions of a model which was tuned in 2013 to describe the elastic and diffractive $pp$- and/or $p\bar{p}$-data at collider energies up to 7 TeV are compared with the new 13 TeV TOTEM results. The possibility of an odd-signature Odderon exchange contribution is discussed.
