Summary
The measurements of high energy $\bar p p~\mbox{and}~p p$ elastic at ISR, SPS, and Tevatron colliders have provided usefull informations on the behavior of the elastic scattering amplitude. A large step in energy domain is accomplished with the LHC collider presently running, giving a unique opportunity to improve our knowledge on the asymptotic regime of the elastic scattering amplitude and to verify the validity of our theoretical approach, to describe the total cross section $\sigma_{tot}(s)$, the total elastic cross section $\sigma_{el}(s)$, the ratio of the real to imaginary parts of the forward amplitude $\rho(s)$ and the differential cross section ${d\sigma (s,t)/dt}$.
