Photon Polarisation in Diffractive Deep Inelastic Scattering
نویسنده
چکیده
The distribution of a suitably defined azimuthal angle in diffractive deep inelastic scattering contains information on the polarisation of the exchanged photon. In particular it allows one to constrain the longitudinal diffractive structure function. We investigate the potential of such bounds in general and for particular diffractive final states.

The triple-pomeron regime and the structure function of the pomeron in the diffractive deep inelastic scattering at very small x
We discuss the diffractive deep inelastic scattering at very small x and derive the properties of the diffractive dissociation of virtual photons in the triple-pomeron regime. We demonstrate that the photon-pomeron interactions can be described by the partonic structure function, which satisfies the QCD evolution equations, and identify the valence and sea (anti)quark and the valence gluon stru...
متن کاملTowards the Theory of Diffractive DIS∗
The large rapidity gap events, observed at HERA, have changed considerably our physical picture of deep inelastic scattering during the past years. We review the present theoretical understanding of diffractive DIS with emphasis on the close relation to inclusive DIS. This includes success and limitations of the leading twist description, the connection between diffractive and inclusive parton ...
متن کاملViolation of geometric scaling in deep inelastic scattering due to Coulomb corrections.
We compute the Coulomb correction to the total and diffractive cross sections for virtual photon scattering off a heavy nucleus at low x. We show that it violates the geometric scaling in a wide range of photon virtualities and is weakly x independent. In heavy nuclei at low Q2, the Coulomb correction to the total and diffractive cross sections is about 20% and 40%, correspondingly.
متن کاملDiffractive Final States with the H1 Detector at HERA
Abstract. Recent measurements of diffractive dijet and charm quark production in electron-proton collisions using the H1 detector at HERA are presented, where the exchanged photon is either almost real or highly virtual. The data are compared with leading and next-to-leading order QCD calculations based on the diffractive parton distributions obtained from a recent DGLAP QCD analysis of H1 incl...
متن کاملDiffractive Parton Density Functions *
We discuss the perturbative QCD description of diffractive deep-inelastic scattering , and extract diffractive parton distributions from recent HERA data. The asymptotic collinear factorisation theorem has important modifications in the sub-asymptotic HERA regime. In addition to the usual resolved Pomeron contribution, the direct interaction of the Pomeron must also be accounted for. The diffra...
