First measurement of elastic, inelastic and total cross-section at $$\sqrt{s}=13$$ s = 13  TeV by TOTEM and overview of cross-section data at LHC energies

The TOTEM collaboration has measured the proton-proton total cross section at s = 13 TeV with a luminosity-independent method. Using dedicated * = 90 m beam optics, the Roman Pots were inserted very close to the beam. The inelastic scattering rate has been measured by
