Most of the time this is talked about as a "differential" cross section, 
where this means essentially the rate of scattering where the incoming 
particle is scattered by a particular angle.

This is a classical mechanics problem, and Rutherford worked it out when 
he was trying to figure out alpha-nucleus scattering.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_scattering

The equation is the one directly *above* the section header "Details of 
calculating maximal nuclear size". For proton-proton scattering, Z=1.
