Abstract

An analysis of the possible contribution of the hard pomeron in elastic hadron scattering at LHC energies is made. It is shown that such a contribution has affected the shape of the differential cross section in the Coulomb–hadron interference region and in the dip region. On the basis of the new High-Energy General Structure (HEGS) model, the possible contributions of the hard pomeron are investigated. The predictions of the model at 8 TeV are discussed.
