An upper bound on the total inelastic cross-section as a function of the total cross-section

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Recently André Martin has proved a rigorous upper bound on the inelastic cross-section σinelσ_{inel} at high energy which is one-fourth of the known Froissart-Martin-Lukaszuk upper bound on σtotσ_{tot}. Here we obtain an upper bound on σinelσ_{inel} in terms of σtotσ_{tot} and show that the Martin bound on σinelσ_{inel} is improved significantly with this added information.
