Dip Movement inpp¯andppElastic Collisions

Abstract
It is pointed out that the recently discovered dip in elastic pp¯ cross section is related to the dips at lower |t| and lower energies, consistent with the geometrical picture of high-energy scattering. At 30 GeV/c incoming energy, the dip is predicted by interpolation to occur at t=1.1 (GeV/c)2. The curve for dip position versus σT is discussed.
