"Summary of Physics Results from the TOTEM Experiment"
Abstract
The TOTEM experiment has performed several measurements related to its physics program in dedicated (high beta*, low L) LHC fills at sqrt(s) = 7 and 8 TeV. Under various beam and background conditions, the differential elastic (as a function of |t|), elastic, inelastic and total pp cross-sections have been measured. The measurement of the forward charged particle eta density and of the double diffractive cross-section in the forward region has also been performed. A summary of these measurements is here reported.
