Low-|t| structures in elastic scattering at the LHC
Possible low- structures in the differential cross section of
elastic scattering at the LHC are predicted. It is argued that the change of
the slope of the elastic cross section near GeV has the same
origin as that observed in 1972 at the ISR, both related to the
branch point in the -channel of the scattering amplitude. Apart from that
structure, tiny oscillations at small may be present on the cone at low
