Results on Diffraction at HERA and Tevatron
Abstract
Recent results on diffraction at HERA, from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations, and at Tevatron, from the CDF and D0 Collaborations, are reviewed. The measurement of the diffractive structure function at HERA is presented, and the pomeron structure function is extracted from QCD fits. Diffractive dijet production is given as an example analysis of the diffractive final state. These analysis are consistent with a leading gluon partonic structure for the pomeron. Hard single diffraction, double diffraction and double pomeron exchange processes are studied at the Tevatron and complement the studies performed at HERA. Finally, HERA results on the diffractive (exclusive) production of a vector particle, either a vector meson or a photon, are presented and compared to models based on perturbative QCD.
