A method of calculating the forward scattering amplitude for fermions and scalar bosons with the exchange of scalar particle is suggested. The Bethe-Salpeter ladder equation for the imaginary part of the amplitude is constructed and a solution in Regge asymptotical form is found and the corrections to the amplitude due to the exit from mass shell are calculated.

The following effects in the nearly forward ("soft") region of the LHC are proposed to be investigated: • At small |t| the fine structure of the cone (Pomeron) should be scrutinized: (a) a break of the cone near t ≈ -0.1 GeV 2, due to the two-pion threshold, and required by t-channel unitarity, and (b) possible small-period oscillations between t = 0 and the dip region. • In measuring the elastic pp scattering and total pp cross-section at the LHC, the experimentalists are urged to treat the total cross-section σt, the ratio ρ of real to imaginary part of the forward scattering amplitude, the forward slope B and the luminosity [Formula: see text] as free parameters, and to publish model-independent results on dN/dt. • Of extreme interest are the details of the expected diffraction minimum in the differential cross-section. Its position, expected in the interval 0.4 < -t < 1 GeV 2 at the level of about 10-2 mb · GeV -2–10-1 mb · GeV -2, cannot be predicted unambiguously, and its depth, i.e. the ratio of dσ/dt at the minimum to that at the subsequent maximum (about -t = 5 GeV 2, which is about 5) is of great importance. • The expected slow-down with increasing |t| of the shrinkage of the second cone (beyond the dip-bump), together with the transition from an exponential to a power decrease in -t, will be indicative of the transition from "soft" to "hard" physics. Explicit models are proposed to help in quantifying this transition. • In a number of papers a limiting behavior, or saturation of the black disk limit (BDL), was predicted. This controversial phenomenon shows that the BDL may not be the ultimate limit, instead a transition from shadow to antishadow scattering may by typical of the LHC energy scale.

An elementary derivation of the optical potential for high energies is given. For the determination of the optical potential only the knowledge of the scattering amplitude for free nucleons and of the autocorrelation function for density fluctuations is necessary. The numerical calculation of the real- and imaginary part of the optical potential was performed using the Tabakin potential.

We present the results of a novel model-independent fit to elastic proton-proton differential cross section data at [Formula: see text]. Taking into account the error propagation from the fit parameters, we determine the scattering amplitude in the impact parameter space (the proton profile function) and its statistical uncertainty region. We show that both the real and imaginary parts of the profile are consistent with two dynamical contributions, one from a central dense region, up to roughly 1 fm and another from a peripheral evanescent region from 1 to 3 fm.
