Erratum to: Proton-proton total cross-section atE c.m. = 15 to 150 TeV from cosmic-ray data

  • Published:
Lettere al Nuovo Cimento (1971-1985)

Summary

Data on the fluctuation in depth of maximum development of cosmicray air showers with laboratory energies in the range (105/107) TeV are found to be inconsistent with a In2 s energy dependence of σpp, when that quantity is derived from σpa with a geometrical scaling model by means of Glauber theory. The data agree remarkably well with the Block-Cahn best-fit extrapolation of ISR results.
