Diffractive Higgs production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We review the advantages of observing exclusive diffractive Higgs production at the LHC. We note the importance of the Sudakov form factor in predicting the event rate. We discuss briefly other processes which may be used as `standard candles'.
