It is proposed to measure $${\Delta \sigma _\text{L}}^{\text{Tot}}$$, the difference in total cross-section between states polarized parallel and anti-parallel, in proton-proton and proton-antiproton scattering between 100 and 500 GeV, using the Fermi1ab polarized proton/antiproton beam incident on a polarized proton target. This proposal deals only with polarizations along the beam direction, but an obvious rearrangement of the experimental components allows measurements of $${\Delta \sigma _\text{T}}^{\text{Tot}}$$, involving transverse, polarization.
