Summary
I show that by colliding vortex proton beams (that is, non-plane-wave states
with spiral phase fronts associated with non-zero orbital angular momentum)
one can probe the phase of the elastic pp scattering amplitude in a novel way,
which is inaccessible in the usual plane wave collisions.
I will describe the main idea and list the requirements that need to be satisfied
for a proof-of-principle experiment realizing this suggestion.
