“…As was noticed in[25], the value of the slope given by the TOTEM Collaboration at this energy could signal (if definitely confirmed) the onset of some new regime of the interaction radius energy evolution.…”

We discuss an apparent correlation between the onset of the rising regime for the total crosssections and the slowdown of the rise of the forward slopes with energy. It is shown that even at highest energies achieved with the LHC the proper sizes of the colliding protons comprise the bulk of the the interaction region. This seems to witness that the "asymptopia" -a hypothetical "truly asymptotic" regime -lies at energies no less than O(100 TeV). In the course of reasoning we also discuss the question of the dependence of the effective sizes of hadrons in collision on the type of their interaction. The ProblemLet us look at Fig. 1 presenting the energy evolution of the total cross sections (σ tot ) and forward slopes (B) for proton-proton interactions. The database (DB17+) of experimental results for the set of the scattering parameters G pp ≡ {G i pp } 2 i=1 = {σ tot , B} is used in the present paper 1 . The set for σ tot contains the data from [1] and preliminary TOTEM results at √ s = 2.76 [2] and 13 TeV [3], the data sample for B unites the subset from [4] with recent improvement from [5] and the new result at √ s = 8 TeV [6] as well as with preliminary points at √ s = 0.20 [7], 2.76 [8] and 13 TeV [3].

“…The size of the hadron-hadron interaction region at all available energies is comparable with the own size of hadrons [27,28]. Due to this cause we have not been able to construct a self-consistent theory of the hadron-hadron elastic and diffraction scattering from the first QCD principles.…”

“…There is evidence that approximately at this energy the slope B(s) begins to accelerate its growth [6,7] (the discussions of this new phenomenon in the context of different models can be found in Refs. [25][26][27][28][29][30][31]). As can be seen from Ref.…”

We discuss the unitarity motivated relations among the elastic cross-section, slope parameter and inelastic cross-section of the high energy pp interaction. In particular, the MacDowell-Martin unitarity bound is written down in another form to make a relation between the elastic and inelastic quantities more transparent. On the basis of an unitarity motivated relation we argue that the growth with energy of the elastic to total cross-section ratio is a consequence of the increasing with energy of the inelastic interaction intensity. The latter circumstance is an underlying reason for the acceleration of the slope parameter growth, for the slowing of the growth of the elastic to total cross-section ratio and for other interesting phenomena, which are observed in the TeV energy range. All of this confirms the old idea that the elastic scattering is a shadow of the particle production processes.

The critical analysis of the new experimental data obtained by the ATLAS Collaboration group at 13 TeV is presented and the problem of the tension between data of the ATLAS and TOTEM Collaborations is considered. The analysis of new effects discovered on the basis of experimental data at 13 TeV MDPI: ref is not allowed in abstract, please correct. and associated with the specific properties of the hadron potential at large distances is carried out taking account of all sets of experimental data on elastic proton-proton scattering obtained by the TOTEM and ATLAS Collaborations in a wide momentum transfer region. It also gives quantitative descriptions of all examined experimental data with a minimum of fitting parameters. It is shown that the new features determined at a high statistical level give an important contribution to the differential cross sections and allow the research analytic properties and symmetries into hadron interactions at large distances.
