Double Pomeron Opportunities at √ s = 1.8 TeV ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
I describe possible ways to discover hard double pomeron exchange (HDPE) with the existing detectors at the Fermilab Tevatron, by using the small-angle " luminosity " counters as a veto. Estimates of the cross sections and backgrounds are made. In addition to the intrinsic importance of HDPE, its observation would be useful for calibrating the detectors, and for estimating the " survival probability " of rapidity gaps.

Diffraction and Total Cross-Section at the Tevatron and the LHC
At the Tevatron, the total pp̄ cross-section has been measured by CDF at 546GeV and 1.8 TeV, and by E710/E811 at 1.8 TeV. The two results at 1.8 TeV disagree by 2.6 standard deviations, introducing big uncertainties into extrapolations to higher energies. At the LHC, the TOTEM collaboration is preparing to resolve the ambiguity by measuring the total pp cross-section with a precision of about 1%...
متن کاملObservation of Diffractive W - Boson Production at the Tevatron CDF
We report the first observation of diffractively produced W bosons. In a sample of W → eν events produced in p¯ p collisions at √ s=1.8 TeV, we find an excess of events with a forward rapidity gap, which is attributed to diffraction. The probability that this excess is consistent with non-diffractive production is 1.1 × 10 −4 (3.8σ). The relatively low fraction of W + Jet events observed within...

The pomeron-pomeron interaction is studied in the perturbative approach of BFKL-Bartels. The total pomeron-pomeron cross-section is proportional to α 4 s s ∆ / √ t 1 t 2 where √ s is the c.m. energy and t 1,2 are the virtualities of the colliding pomerons. Upon calculating the coefficient the cross-section is found to be of the order 2.2 mb at √ s = 6 TeV and √ −t 1 ∼ √ −t 2 ∼ 1 GeV/c.

متن کاملResults on Qcd Physics from the Cdf-ii Experiment
In this paper we review a selection of recent results obtained, in the area of QCD physics, from the CDF-II experiment that studies p¯ p collisions at √ s=1.96 TeV provided by the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. All results shown correspond to analysis performed using the Tevatron Run II data samples. In particular we will illustrate the progress achieved and the status of our studies on the follow...
