Abstract

We discuss scaling properties of the elastic pp cross-section both at the ISR and the LHC. We observe that the ratio of bump to dip positions of the differential cross-section dσ_{\rm el}/dt is constant over a wide energy range. We next study the consequences of this property, including geometric scaling at the ISR and new scaling laws at the LHC.
