Coulomb-Nuclear Interference:the Latest Modification

Abstract

We argue that the account of Coulomb-nuclear interference (CNI) in the differential cross-section of elastic $pp$ scattering may be easily treated without introduction of intermediate IR regularization ("photon mass"). We also indicate that the parametrization used earlier misses some terms of the second order in $\alpha$ while it contains a superfluous term of the first order.
