Diffractive patterns in deep-inelastic scattering and parton genealogy

Abstract

We report on our recent observation that the occurrence of diffractive patterns in the scattering of electrons off nuclei obeys the same law as the fluctuations of the height of genealogical trees in branching diffusion processes.
