ATLAS measured charged-particle production in 9.62 TeV p-O collisions, yielding a fiducial pO cross section of 396 mb and extrapolated p-air inelastic cross section of 406 mb, with distributions an order of magnitude more precise than hadronic model differences.
A new heuristic estimates photonuclear reactions' contribution to muon numbers in extensive air showers with roughly 10% absolute error over wide parameter ranges.
Proposes construction of the Forward Physics Facility at the HL-LHC with four complementary detectors to exploit forward neutrinos and new-particle fluxes for neutrino, QCD, astroparticle, and dark-matter measurements.
