Diffraction at Hera
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent results on diffraction at HERA, as measured by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations, are reviewed. Results on the photon-proton total hadronic cross section, on vector meson production both at small and large photon virtuality and on photon diffraction are presented. The experimental signature of diffraction at HERA, as well as the selection methods used by the two collaborations are explained.

Results on Diffraction at Hera and Tevatron
Recent results on diffraction at HERA, from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations, and at Tevatron, from the CDF and D0 Collaborations, are reviewed. The measurement of the diffractive structure function at HERA is presented, and the pomeron structure function is extracted from QCD fits. Diffractive dijet production is given as an example analysis of the diffractive final state. These analysis are con...
متن کاملFuture Diffraction at HERA
Future prospects of hard diffraction at HERA a reviewed. A selection of processes which can be calculated in pQCD is given, with emphasis on the separation of soft and hard diffraction. The main focus will be put on the energy dependence of diffractive processes and signatures for the hard pQCD pomeron. Problems in the experimental detection of these processes and the expected significance of f...
متن کاملHigh Energy Qcd and Hard Diffraction at Hera versus Tevatron
We present and discuss two different topics where Tevatron and HERA data can be compared directly. A method allowing for a direct comparison of data with theoretical predictions is proposed for forward jet production at HERA. An application to the determination of the effective Pomeron intercept in the BFKL-LO parametrization from dσ/dx data at HERA leads to a good fit with a significantly high...

متن کاملReview of High Energy Diffraction in Real and Virtual Photon Proton scattering at HERA
The electron-proton collider HERA at DESY opened the door for the study of diffraction in real and virtual photon-proton scattering at center-of-mass energies W up to 250 GeV and for large negative mass squared −Q2 of the virtual photon up to Q = 1600 GeV. At W = 220 GeV and Q = 4 GeV, diffraction accounts for about 15% of the total virtual photon proton cross section decreasing to ≈ 5% at Q = ...
