Considering the high-energy limit of the QCD gluon distribution inside a nucleus, we calculate the proton-nucleus total inelastic cross section using a simplified dipole model. We show that, if gluon saturation occurs in the nuclear surface region, the total cross section of proton-nucleus collision

This work compiles information concerning the total, inelastic and diffractive cross sections for proton-nucleus interactions. The values are fitted together with the expression σ = σ 0 A α , where A is the target atomic mass number. Also discussed is the amplitude of the diffractive components of t
