A measurement of the total pp cross section at the LHC at √s = 7 TeV is presented. In a special run with high-[beta]* beam optics, an integrated luminosity of 80 [mu]b-1 was accumulated in order to measure the differential elastic cross section as a function of the Mandelstam momentum transfer variable t . The measurement is performed with the ALFA sub-detector of ATLAS. Using a fit to the differential elastic cross section in the.
