The analysis is based on events with energy deposits in the forward calorimeters, which cover pseudorapidities of -6.6 $< \\eta <$ -3.0 and +3.0 $< \\eta <$ +5.2. An inelastic cross section of 68.6 $\\pm$ 0.5 (syst) $\\pm$ 1.6 (lumi) mb is obtained for events with $M_\\mathrm{X} >$ 4.1 GeV and/or $M_\\mathrm{Y} >$ 13 GeV, where $M_\\mathrm{X}$ and $M_\\mathrm{Y}$ are the masses of the diffractive dissociation systems at negative and positive pseudorapidities,"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1802.02613","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
