Total cross-section from particle accelerators, colliders, and cosmic ray phenomena: Some new global fits

Abstract

The total cross-sections in high energy hadronic collisions constitute a crucial physical observable in the areas of both particle physics and cosmic ray physics phenomena. In fact, this acts as the linking bridge between these two fields of persistent studies—both experimental and theoretical. In the present work we aim at providing some global and excellent fits to the latest available data on PP total cross-sections from the viewpoint of two phenomenological models. The fits would then be compared and discussed.
