Resumo

Following earlier findings, we argue that the low-vertical bar t vertical bar structure in the elastic diffractive cone, recently reported by the TOTEM Collaboration at 8 TeV, is a consequence of the threshold singularity required by t-channel unitarity, such as revealed earlier at the ISR. By using simple Regge-pole models, we analyze the available data on the pp elastic differential cross section in a wide range of c.m. energies, namely those from ISR to LHC8, obtaining good fits of all datasets. This study hints at the fact that the non-exponential behavior observed at LHC8 is a recurrence of the low-vertical bar t vertical bar "break" phenomenon, observed in the seventies at ISR, being induced by the presence of a two-pion loop singularity in the Pomeron trajectory.
