Rapidity gap survival probability and total cross sections.

Martin, A.D.; Khoze, V.A.; Ryskin, M.G.

Abstract

We discuss recent calculations of the survival probability of the large rapidity gaps in exclusive processes of the type pp → p + A + p at high energies. Absorptive or screening effects are important, and one consequence is that the total cross section at the LHC is predicted to be only about 90 mb.
