Factorization and Scaling in Hard Diffraction
نویسنده
چکیده
We compare results on diffractive W-boson production at the Tevatron with predictions based on the diffractive structure function measured in deep inelastic scattering at HERA assuming (a) conventional factorization or (b) hard factorization combined with a rapidity gap distribution scaled to the total gap probability. We find that conventional factorization fails, while the scaling prediction agrees with the data.

Diffraction in hadron-hadron interactions
Results on soft and hard diffraction in pp and ¯ pp collisions are reviewed with emphasis on factorization and scaling properties of differential cross sections. While conventional factorization breaks down at high energies, a scaling behavior emerges, which leads to a universal description of diffractive processes in terms of a (re)normalized rapidity gap probability distribution.

متن کاملB?J/?(?,K) Decays within QCD Factorization Approach
We used QCD factorization for the hadronic matrix elements to show that the existing data, in particular the branching ratios BR ( ?J/?K) and BR ( ?J/??), can be accounted for this approach. We analyzed the decay within the framework of QCD factorization. We have complete calculation of the relevant hard-scattering kernels for twist-2 and twist-3. We calculated this decays in a special scale ...

Results on soft and hard diffraction are briefly reviewed and placed in a QCD perspective using a parton model approach. Issues addressed include factorization, scaling properties, universality of rapidity gap formation, and unitarity. Predictions for differential cross sections of processes with multiple rapidity gaps are presented with examples for the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider. ...
