Abstract: (Elsevier)

Unitarity in the s -channel is invoked to derive an upper bound for the inelastic diffractive cross-section as a function of impact parameter. The application of this bound to high-energy proton-proton scattering strongly suggests that inelastic diffraction should be peripheral in the impact parameter space.
