Abstract
The differential cross-section distribution at center of mass energy \(\sqrt s = 13~\,\,{\text{TeV}}\) at \(~pp\) scattering by TOTEM at LHC is fitted to the linear and quadratic exponential function in the small \(~\left| t \right|\) range of \(~0.04 < \left| t \right| < 0.2\,\,~{\text{Ge}}{{{\text{V}}}^{2}}\). Radius of proton is calculated by Form Factor of proton using Pristine Chou–Yang Model with slope parameter\(~B = 20.39~{{({\text{GeV}})}^{{ - 2}}}\) and found to be invariant due to the non-exponential behavior of diffraction cone at small \(\left| t \right| \approx 0\) or presence of the pion cloud around the nucleon structure.
