Coulomb-nuclear interference in proton-proton scattering: Reply to a comment of V.\ Petrov

Abstract

We show that the remarks of V.\ Petrov in the preceding Comment are misdirected in the region of very small momentum transfers relevant to the study of Coulomb-nuclear interference in proton-proton scattering, and clarify the connection between our results and those of Cahn and of Kundrát and Lokajiček which he cites.
