The nucleon-antinucleon ( N-N ) problem is formulated in the new Tamm-Dancoff (NTD) approximation in the lowest order, and the integral equation for N-N̅ scattering derived, taking account of both the exchange and annihilation interactions. It is found convenient to represent the N-N̅ wave-function as a 4 x 4 matrix, rather than the usual 16 x 1 matrix for the nucleon-nucleon wave-function, and a complete correspondence is established between these two representations. The divergences associated with the annihilation interaction and their renormalization are discussed in detail in the following paper (Mitra & Saxena 1960; referred to as II). The integral equation with the exchange interaction alone, is then separated into eigenstates of T, J, L and S in the usual manner and the various phase shifts obtained. The results of II for the contribution of the annihilation term are then used to calculate the complete phase shifts from which the various cross-sections (scattering and charge exchange) are derived. The results indicate that while the exchange term alone gives too small values for the total cross-sections versus energy, inclusion of the annihilation interaction without renormalization effects makes the cross-sections nearly three times larger than those observed. On the other hand, inclusion of the finite effects of renormalization (which manifest themselves essentially as a suppression of the virtual meson propagator) brings down these cross-sections to the order of magnitude of the observed ones.

In 1970, on purely theoretical grounds, all total hadronic total cross-sections were predicted to increase without limit for higher and higher energies. This was contrary to the conventional belief at that time. In 1978, an accurate phenomenological model was formulated for the case of proton–proton and antiproton-proton interactions. The parameters for this model were slightly improved in 1984 using the additional available experimental data. Since then, for 30 years these parameters have not changed. This development, including especially the difficult task of formulating this phenomenological model and the comparison of the predictions of this model with later experimental results, is summarized.

A summary of the work carried out at the Institute for High-Energy Physics, Serpukhov, U. S. S. R., on proton-proton interactions at energies between 10 and 70 GeV is given. The experiments comprise studies of small angle elastic scattering, of total cross-sections and of interactions in a hydrogen bubble chamber.
