Description
The reaction cross section sigma(sup(pA)sub(R))(E) for proton-nucleus collisions varies with energy as the total cross section Σ(sup(pN)sub(t))(E) does for proton-nucleon scattering in the energy regime 100 MeV <= E <= 400 GeV. We propose several empirical relations, and test them by a chi2 analysis of various data. Within the framework of Glauber theory, the parameters in the relations can be linked to the cross section for a single inelastic collision. (orig.)
