Diffractive Photoproduction of Jets with a Direct Pomeron Coupling at HERA
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate in detail the effect of a direct pomeron coupling to quarks on the production of jets in ep scattering with almost real photons. Jet production via a direct pomeron coupling is compared with the resolved–pomeron mechanism. We consider both direct and resolved photoproduction. Rapidity and transverse momentum distributions are calculated and compared with preliminary H1 and ZEUS data.

Jet asymmetry in high energy diffractive production ∗
We propose the asymmetry in the fractional energy of charm versus anticharm jets produced in high energy diffractive photoproduction as a sensitive test of the interference of the Odderon (C = −) and Pomeron (C = +) exchange amplitudes in QCD. If measured at HERA, this asymmetry could provide the first experimental evidence of the Odderon.
متن کاملHard Photoproduction at HERA
In view of possible photoproduction studies in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at the LHC, we briefly review the present theoretical understanding of photons and hard photoproduction processes at HERA, discussing the production of jets, light and heavy hadrons, quarkonia, and prompt photons. We address in particular the extraction of the strong coupling constant from photon structure funct...
متن کاملQuark-Antiquark Production in DIS Diffractive Dissociation
We calculate the cross section for the production of two jets with large transverse momenta k in DIS diffractive dissociation for both transverse and longitudinally polarized photons. The scale which defines the hardness of the Pomeron is found to be k Q 2 +M M . We present analytic expressions and discuss numerical results relevant for the diffractive dissociation at HERA. 1.) The diffractive ...
متن کاملDiffractive charm photoproduction at HERA ep - collider
The cross section of the D *-meson diffractive photoproduction at the HERA collider has been calculated in the framework of perturbatively motivated model for the different kine-matic regions. The camparison between the different Pomeron models has been performed.
متن کاملDiffractive Photoproduction of Heavy Vector Mesons
Diffractive vector meson production is described on the one hand within the phenomenological framework based on Regge theory, and on the other hand by perturbative QCD calculations. Light vector mesons in the photoproduction regime (where no hard scale is present) agree well with non-perturbative Regge based descriptions. Perturbative effects are measured in the presence of a hard scale for lig...
