Abstract
Abstract The p p elastic differential cross section at 30 GeV/c incident momentum has been measured in a two-arm spectrometer experiment (WA7) at the CERN SPS. The |t|-range covered extends from 0.5 to 5.8 (GeV/c)2. A pronounced dip-bump structure is observed, with a sharp minimum around |t| ≈ 1.7 (GeV/c)2. The results are compared with existing p p data at lower energies and with our earlier p p data at 50 GeV/c. A number of model predictions are discussed. We also compare the p p 30 GeV/c differential cross section with that of pp at the same momentum. Finally, the energy dependence of the p p fixed-|t| differential cross in the incident momentum range 3.6 to 50 GeV/c is presented.
