Abstract
The diffractive vector meson photoproduction with hadron dissociation in coherent hadron-hadron interactions at LHC energies is studied assuming that the color singlet -channel exchange carries large momentum transfer. We estimate the rapidity distribution and total cross section for the processes and ( or ) considering the non-forward solution of the BFKL equation at high energy and large momentum transfer. Our results indicate that the experimental identification of these processes can be feasible at the LHC.
