Description

Starting from a simple parametrization of production amplitudes an explicit construction of the diffractive elastic amplitude through multiparticle unitarity is given. It is shown that the phase cancellation effect is essential in order to obtain an elastic amplitude which displays a diffractive peak in qualitative agreement with the data. (orig.)
