Abstract: | An analysis of the Coulombic amplitude and its interference with the nuclear amplitude which is driven by the three-component
pomeron is presented. It is shown that different approaches towards the evaluation of the Coulomb phase give approximately
uniform results at all energies and the differences are negligible at RHIC and LHC energies. We show that the use of the amplitude
which was fitted to accommodate the nucleon data only (in the region (GeV2)), combined with the Coulomb amplitude, reproduces the existing data in the Coulomb interference domain quite accurately
without any adjustment of the parameters. As a consequence, we predict the differential cross section in the region of the
Coulomb nucleon interference for both RHIC and LHC energies.
