Extraction of low-mass diffractive cross section from the discrepancy between ATLAS and TOTEM total cross sections

Abstract At the LHC, two experiments – ATLAS and TOTEM – measure the total proton–proton cross section. Unfortunately, a significant discrepancy, persisting at different collision energies, is observed between the values reported by the two groups. This paper considers the hypothesis that this tensi...
