Recent LHC/TOTEM data challenging the standard Regge pole theory

We analyse the recently discovered phenomena in elastic protonproton scattering at the LHC: the low-|t| “break” (departure from the exponential behaviour of the diffraction cone), the accelerating rise with energy of the forward slope B(s), the absence of secondary dips and bumps on the cone and the...
