Hard Diffraction — 20 Years Later
نویسنده
چکیده
The idea of diffractive processes with a hard scale involved, to resolve the underlying parton dynamics , was published 1985 and experimentally verified 1988. Today hard diffraction is an active research field with high-quality data and new theoretical models. The trend from Regge-based pomeron models to QCD-based parton level models has given insights on QCD dynamics involving perturbative gluon exchange mechanisms, including the predicted BFKL-dynamics, as well as novel ideas on non-perturbative colour fields and their interactions. Extrapolations to the LHC include the interesting possibility of diffractive Higgs production.

Using a combination of S-Matrix and perturbative QCD properties in the small x Bj regime, we propose a formulation of hard diffraction unifying the partonic (Ingelman-Schlein) Pomeron, Soft Colour Interaction and QCD dipole descriptions.

متن کاملThe Molecular Architecture for the Intermediate Filaments of Hard α-Keratin Based on the Superlattice Data Obtained from a Study of Mammals Using Synchrotron Fibre Diffraction
High- and low-angle X-ray diffraction studies of hard α-keratin have been studied, and various models have been proposed over the last 70 years. Most of these studies have been confined to one or two forms of alpha keratin. This high- and low-angle synchrotron fibre diffraction study extends the study to cover all available data for all known forms of hard α-keratin including hairs, fingernails...

Diffractive p̄p interactions are characterized by a leading (high longitudinal momentum) outgoing proton or antiproton and/or a large rapidity gap, defined as a region of pseudorapidity, η ≡ − ln tan θ 2 , devoid of particles. The large rapidity gap is presumed to be due to the exchange of a Pomeron, which carries the internal quantum numbers of the vacuum. Rapidity gaps formed by multiplicity f...

Results on soft and hard diffraction obtained by the CDF Collaboration in Run I of the Fermilab Tevatron p̄p collider are reviewed and compared with results from the DESY ep collider HERA and with theoretical expectations. In addition, the CDF program for diffractive studies in Run II is briefly reviewed with emphasis on the relevant detector upgrades and physics goals.
