Description

We will recall the main features of an accurate phenomenological model to describe successfully near-forward elastic scattering in a wide energy range, including ISR, SPS and Tevatron colliders. A large step in energy domain is accomplished with the LHC collider presently running, giving a unique opportunity to confront the new data with the predictions of our theoretical approach.
