Antiproton-proton total elastic cross sections in the T and U regions (0.69−2.43 GeV/c)

Antiproton-proton total elastic cross sections at 21 incident momenta in the range 0.69 to 2.43 GeV/c have been deduced by combining p?p elastic differential cross sections over a c.m. angular range $\text{?0.95 ?}\text{cos}\text{θ}{}^1\text{? 0.93}$ with forward elastic cross sections derived from recent real-part measurements and p?p total cross sections. Two bumps are observed, at $\text{M}{}_1\text{? 2.155}$ and $\text{M}{}_2\text{? 2.345}\text{GeV}\text{/c}{}^2$, having widths of Г₁ ～ 0.135 and $\text{Г}{}_2\text{～ 0.135}\text{GeV}\text{/c}{}^2$. Corresponding structures in other p?p reaction channels are discussed.
