Abstract
A comprehensive discussion of the unitarity bounds on inclusive angular distributions, given the elastic amplitudes and the integrated inelastic cross section, is presented. The role played by the latter constraint in improving the bound is studied in detail. Calculations are made forπ ± p →p (inclusive) at 6 GeV/c.
