Introduction to low x physics and diffraction

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The basic concepts relevant for the theoretical description of deep inelastic scattering within the QCD improved parton model are introduced. Recent developments in low xx DIS and in deep inelastic diffraction are briefly summarised. This includes discussion of the BFKL dynamics including the subleading effects and of the saturation model. The dedicated measurements, which probe the QCD pomeron are also discussed.
